    But Quinn being Quinn, takes it all in her stride as much as possible, even managing to perform at the end of year dance recital. It was incredible seeing her on stage like every other 3yr old, knowing what is all going on behind the scenes. She is making new friends at daycare having moved up to the preschool side, leaving to explore her adventurous side. She blows us away constantly with her resilience and even at her age is an example to us all.

    As a family it's been an incredibly tough few months trying to juggle everything and we are so grateful for everyone who has been there for us and supporting us. We couldn't do it without you. To those who continue to support the Give A Little, we are so thankful. All of your love and support means the world to us

    Lots of love Brynn, Jimmy and Quinn xx

    Hey all, time for a very late update on our little Quinn. Which we will do in two parts ❤️‍🩹

    It's been a while since we have put an update out, with life and treatment being incredibly busy for everyone. Our little girl is now three years old, and full of life and energy. It's hard to believe over half of her life has been going through cancer treatment. Looking at her and watching her from afar, you'd never know. She is the sweetest girl in the world and finding more and more interests, with swimming lessons starting again, and starting dance classes.

    The last four months have been both amazing and incredibly testing. We have gone through another round of maintenance, and last week started the most recent round. She has spent most of this time neutropenic, meaning zero immune system, weekly blood tests, a hold on chemotherapy, and a lot of time stuck at home. We have also been knocked by winter bugs, Covid, and gastro, resulting in fevers and hospital stays.

    With the new round of treatment we have lumbar punctures, on steroids, and more. This takes a massive toll on Quinn, leaving her incredibly nauseous and constantly exhausted. Not to mention wild mood swings. We have struggled with her eating and her guts constantly, having to return 24/7 to feed pumps and to get food and fluids in to her for a while. We continue daily chemo, along with all the other medications for the foreseeable future whenever she's well enough.
