My wonderful family x

My Mummy, Alexa, my sister Lucy and me

My Daddy with Alexa

I feel very blessed to have the most amazingly supportive family behind me; I knew this before cancer, but this whole process has it all the more evident.  They have never failed to ensure that I knew I had the support that I so needed during this time.  They have been here for me in some many ways; be it to give me a cuddle, help me with Alexa, listen to me, make me feel like everything will be ok, give me things to look forward to in the future, be by my side through every step of treatment or to help with the financial difficulties that come along with cancer.

As I have said previously I think it harder for the carers looking after someone with cancer.  As I am now a mum I can appreciate the love and devotion that come along with having a child; and from this understanding I can now somewhat imagine how devastating it must be to watch your precious child going through something that you can have no control or affect over.  All you can do is put your faith into the medical profession and hope that they look after your precious cargo as well as you would yourself.

I am so very grateful to them - it is they who have made me the strong, courageous woman and mother that I am today.  Whatever choices I made in the past they were always there to support me; be it to pick up the pieces when it all went wrong or to celebrate my successes with me. 

My dad will always be my hero, my Mum will always be my role model, my sister will always be my best friend and Alexa will always by my precious baby girl.

Much Love Cx
