Hi everyone, I am a 19 year old from Australia, I was diagnosed with a rare liver cancer at 17...biggest shock of my life, but I'm doing well and have gone through multiple liver surgeries and chemo, it can be scary at times as everyone well knows, but it has shown me what's important and not sweat the small stuff so I'm grateful for that.

    Welcome
    Welcome aboard hopealways.
    I don't know what I am doing on the 'young survivors' board (I am 60....lol), but I just wanted to say that I was diagnosed with cancer at age 38 and am still here after three diagnoses over a span of 10 years. I hope you will take courage and know that living with and through and after cancer is very doable and worth the effort.
    God bless.
