Hi All. My friend is a 3 time cancer survivor. We were at a friend's home the other night and she was talking about her past treatments and how she got through ALL of it.

Facebook
I haven't been able to get on here as much as I used to. I guess life is getting somewhat back to normal. However, a few times when I did get a chance to get on this weekend, I had to go through a lot of spam. I do, however, get on Facebook more regularly than here. I am friends with many of you on Facebook already, but…

Getting scared
It's late and I am having trouble sleeping, which is nothing new. I am getting scared to join in on the boards. It just seems that everytime I come on it bad news. I know what this cancer can do. Does the fear ever really go away. We have lost a few sisters recently, and well this scares me. Not so much for myself, but for…

Call ACS - report this spammer to them
I just did. Stay on to speak with an operator. The more that report it directly to them I would think the more they would get busy doing something about it! 1-800-227-2345 Susan

WHAT THE #$%*&^?
WHAT THE #%&#$% IS GOING ON! (Yes I'm yelling!) At least the 3rd round of spamming is going on from the same 'identity'! Is there no monitoring of the site by ACS being done? I can understand once, maybe twice but to allow 3 that's very questionable. Susan

Sad news about Deb1969
It is with a broken heart that I bring you the news that Deb1969 passed away last Saturday. She has not been on the boards for awhile but she started over 2 years ago. Her story is similar to mine.

Our more current posts are on Page 3 and 4
Because this #$%$% person spammed our site, most of our current subject posts start a little way down on page 3 and on page 4. I just hate it when this happens. It totally screws up the information that people are looking at and puts posts that are outdated (although they might have useful stuff) up at the top. As Winnie…
