Merry Xmas
15 December 2023
Hi everyone, just wanted to update you in my progress. I finished my IV chemo in August and it had really helped to shrink the tumours in my lymph nodes and chest wall so they were looking at giving my more radiotherapy to try and shrink down the remainder but within 4 weeks the tumour had mutated into a really aggressive type again that was like and octopus and came back all over my skin, chest wall again and all my lymph nodes- my oncologist said she had never seen it come back so quickly- I feel it’s been so typical of my journey. So started immediately in oral chemo which is giving me a few weird side effects but hopefully will help to control things a little bit. It’s just such a roller coaster ride at the moment. Anyway just wanted to say I appreciate everyone for their help this year and so appreciate you all. Have a wonderful Xmas and New Year. Hoping 2024 is good for all of us xxxxx

I was just wondering how you were getting on this morning Helen, thinking I must try and get in touch. Hope you have a lovely Christmas with your beautiful family <3 Your little granddaughter's such a cutie! Would love to catch up with you and Marie sometime if you're up to it, but totally understand if you're not. Sending lots of love xx

Thank you Steven, yes you are right - Xmas is so much more special with children around. Thanks Renee, would love to see you in the New Year and find out how everyone is. I think Marie is on Facebook so perhaps we can catch up through this avenue as I don’t have Facebook. Look forward to seeing you soon. Take care and have a lovely Xmas xxxxxxx
