Clarkkent Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 To the best of my knowledge, cancer treatment in France is delivered from specialised regional centres. The centre for SW France is the Bergonie Institute in Bordeaux which has links with local hospitals.Try www.bergonie.orgAs for language, you take your chance ...

Later Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 Off topic I know, but my wife (we) is/are currently undergoing treatment for cervical cancer in Hampshire. If there is anything we can do to help, please get in touch by email, or reply to this post? We're surrounded by English and Australian doctors who are family and friends and a sister-in-law who is an oncology nurse in Portsmouth. So we are awash with support, love and, not to be underestimated, information.At the very least we might be able to help by pointing you at UK online cancer support information - not much use in France you might think, but my wife (we) found that the more information we had, the better able we were to deal with the "thing". Four courses of chemo down and radiotherapy about to start, we appear to be winning and hope you are too. There is hope and lots of reasons to be optimistic. My mother had a radical mastectomy in 1964 and she is still going strong (now aged 82).Courage, stength and above all good humour in the face of adversity to you! .
