Hi everyone,

I found out about Imerman Angels recently - it's really quite inspiring. They basically connect people to others who have had the same type of cancer, and been through a successful fight. It was founded by a young man who had testicular cancer - though based in America they connect people all over the world.

You can find out more on their website, and hope that it helps some of you!

Love, Cathy

Hi Cathy, what a lovely site, thank you for sharing. I found the Whatnow site (Macmillan/Bacup) a very good place for support from people with the same cancer etc. It's also for carer's.

Love and light

Hi there Reikiangel,

That is a great site too!

The thing I like most about Imerman is their ability to make direct connections in such a bespoke way - just a case of answer the questions and they'll put you in touch with someone who has been through exactly the same kind of cancer as you. They have such a large network now that even seem to be able to connect people with the same cancer at the same stage as each other.

It looks particularly valuable to anyone with a rare form of cancer - when it's hardest to connect people, especially those who have been through a successful treatment!!

Best wishes, Cathy.
