Blue Faery’s Liver Cancer Community
Blue Faery is proud to join HealthUnlocked to create our liver cancer community; it’s the first online patient forum specifically for people living with primary liver cancer, specifically Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC), and their caregivers.
Blue Faery’s Liver Cancer Community is open to all HCC patients and their caregivers. We understand the unique challenges of HCC and created this safe, private, and HIPAA-compliant space for patients and caregivers to connect, share experiences, and find support from others who truly understand this journey.
While our focus is on HCC, we welcome anyone impacted by liver cancer to join. Please note that treatments for secondary liver cancer and bile duct cancer differ significantly, and our discussions and resources are tailored primarily to those facing HCC.
About the Community
Our forum brings together patients and caregivers who have been where you are. The shared experiences and practical advice offered here often go beyond what medical books or even healthcare providers can provide. In this community, you can:
Share your story and listen to others’ experiences.
Connect with patients and caregivers who truly understand.
Make new friends to support you through the journey.
Receive peer support from people who care.
Learn about opportunities specific to HCC patients and caregivers.
At Blue Faery, a part of our mission is to create a safe space for communication between patients with liver cancer, their families, and their caregivers to foster a community of support and information. While we encourage patients to discuss their disease, please remember every patient's journey is different.
A support system with other patients provides valuable information. Those who have dealt with liver cancer and its treatments for significant periods become well-educated on this disease and offer a practical perspective.
Medical professionals are not the only source of care and healing. Support from people who have had or are going through the same challenges as you provides something that doctors and medicines cannot—true understanding.
Who Is This Community For?
Our community is specifically designed for:
Patients diagnosed with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)
Caregivers supporting loved ones with HCC
If your liver cancer originates from another primary cancer, you are still welcome here but may find that some discussions and shared experiences are less relevant to your journey.
Privacy and Safety
We respect your privacy. You may join under an alias, and all communications are visible only to members. We also encourage all members to review and follow our Community Guidelines to maintain a safe, respectful, and supportive environment.

While we do not provide medical advice, recommend treatments, or endorse specific doctors, the emotional and practical support you’ll find here is invaluable.
Many members of our liver cancer forum share their treatment experiences, celebrate their good days, and ask for support on their bad days. There is support no matter what stage you are at in your journey. All we ask is that your contributions uphold our mission to create a safe space for our members.
In our community, we do not recommend
Treatment Options
Medications
Doctors
Hospitals
Our community is strictly for emotional and mental support. It is not a replacement for doctors or a verified treatment option. The members of this community are not medical professionals but are there to offer advice and support based on their own experiences. We recommend that members always discuss their treatment plans with their doctors.
The advice and information provided in this forum come from liver cancer patients, friends, and family and are not a substitute for diagnosis, treatment plans, or doctors. While we are based in the United States, not all community members are, so the accuracy of the information on medications, insurance, and healthcare depends on member location.
We ask that all community members read and abide by our Community Guidelines to maintain a safe place for you and others diagnosed with Hepatocellular Carcinoma. Thank you!
