Big (Ladies) Problem
Hi .... Have completed our TRA last year and were just in the process of finishing off our visa...... When suddenly , huge blow and have just been told at the age of 38 that i have breast cancer!My twin sister and her husband are due to emigrate early next year ,and our plan was to follow them shortly after.My agent has said that he has never come across this problem before ,but has basically told me that there is no point in continuing with our application at this present time.Would be interested to know if anyone else has been in this situation before and got there visas or if it was even possible to pass the medicals.
p.s Thank you Sophia for your PM, i will e-mail you tomorrow! p.p.s Big day at hospital tomorrow morning for me ...results of all the tests to see if it has spread any further :scared: ... and also when i will be starting my chemo ...... :o I know this is abit cheeky as more a reader than a poster ...but some Karma from you guys out there would be much appreciated...... feel like my Ozzie dream is slipping away :scared: Michelle x |

Good luck for tomorrow - K sent Take care Sel x |

Re: Big (Ladies) Problem
Gosh, sending a massive CYBER HUG to you and your family, as the advice has said so far, please don't give up hope of making the move, keep that as one of your focuses.
Best wishes B xxx |
Re: Big (Ladies) Problem
Michelle we all send you Loads and Loads of Karma sweetpea. Stay positive and take heart from Sels reply. Your dream is still alive and is just waiting for you to get yourself well! Good luck with everything girl - we will say a prayer for you too. God bless. Trev xx

Re: Big (Ladies) Problem
Karma sent - I wish you the best of luck tomorrow......this is just a blip so don't lose focus on your dream. I think its important that you look after yourself right now, once you know what treatment you are to have you can look into submitting your visa application. Once you know where you stand post your question on the Immigration forum - I'm sure in the past an agents name has been mentioned that specialises in medical issues surrounding visa applications. Meantime though take time to come to terms with this sad news and focus on your recovery....Australia will always be there for you.
Take care and let us know how things are going.....if you need someone to talk to feel free to PM me. Lynn x |
Re: Big (Ladies) Problem
So sorry to hear that, hope it all goes well tomorrow stay positive, easier said than done x x x

Re: Big (Ladies) Problem
What horrible news. I wish you good luck for tommorow. Hugs and best wishes.

Re: Big (Ladies) Problem
Good luck for tomorrow, sending you calming Karma.
Remember, Oz is still going to be there, when your well enough to carry on with your application. When your ready do a search for the name of the visa chaps who specialise in health matters, I can't remember his name, but the other agents recommend him so he must be good. Carole x |
Re: Big (Ladies) Problem
Bugger :eek: That's terrible news. Hope the treatment goes as well as it can. Obviously everything is on hold for you. The agent with the medical expertise is Peter Bollard - he's in Sydney and his e-mail addy is onk[at]bigpond.net.au . He is recommended by all the agents who post on here so must be good.
If you have the time and inclination, let us know how you get on. Loads of hugs and karma heading your way. |

My FIL was diagnosed and treated for prostate cancer in 2002/03 - he and my MIL applied for their visa after he was given the all-clear and they moved to Oz in May, my point being this doesn't mean that your dream is slipping away. You just concentrate right now on fighting this thing and getting yourself completely well - and once you have it licked, your application can get back on track!!! A HUGE hug and karma coming your way. Best Wishes, Nicky |
Re: Big (Ladies) Problem

Re: Big (Ladies) Problem
hiya babe
Best of luck for tomorrow, hope you get some good news. Remember what I said, and do your research!!!!! Make sure you feel in control of what is happening to you, ask as many questions as you can think of, and if you can't think of any, just feel free to ask me!! My oncologist said that in all his years of experience the best way to get a good result is to have a positive mental attitude. Take heart from all us survivors out here, there are plenty of us, this is my second time and I'm only 33, I've chosen to it holistically this time....and remember you can beat this. Don't forget to email me...and remember if you want my number just ask! Love, Peace and hugs babe Sophia xxxxx |
Re: Big (Ladies) Problem
Fingers crossed for you...good luck :)

Re: Big (Ladies) Problem
Really just wanted to say how sorry I am and what a blow it must be. I am 37 and reading your post made me feel very vulnerable. I have been feeling very sorry for myself today (long story) and you have made me snap out of it, silly mare that I am. You are so brave and I just wanted to give you a big hug. I have sent you some karma.
Good luck for tomorrow and I agree that you shouldn't give up hope or your dreams. You will get there one day, of that I have no doubt. Best wishes, SArah |
Re: Big (Ladies) Problem
How awful for you. Really hope all goes well tomorrow.
A couple of girls I know at work have had to deal with cancer and chemo recently and they have come through fine, so please try and stay positive - I know it must be easier said than done. K sent and hugs to you. |

Re: Big (Ladies) Problem
Hi, thank you for all your replies ,and i think that Karma thingy works,as got the news today at the hospital that the cancer hasn't spread anywhere else!!! :D
Even after the consultant explained to me that i need six courses of chemo , a mastectomy , that i will become infertile after the treatment i still left his room with a smile on my face i think i was so relieved that it wasn't anywhere else ,after watching my partners father die of lung cancer last year. I feel blessed that i already have a six year old son ,so instead of feeling bitter that i cant have any more ,i feel grateful as i know alot of people out there cant have children at all. A bit annoyed about losing my hair (as a hair quite long,and i,m a teeny weeny bit vain) but will go on shopping spree to find some nice bandannas,and false eye lashes! I will also enjoy my last weekend out at my local with friends ,and have a few drinks!..God i,m going to miss my wine as well :beer: Thanks again everyone...and believe me i,m not brave , i dont feel it , i just have to much left to do......just going to put it on hold for about three years and four months ,see you all in oz! Michelle xxxxxxxxx |
