Memoir
'We cannot change the cards we are dealt,just how we play the hand.' Randy Pausch
Scream Silently
Being diagnosed with skin cancer may seem like the end of the world – but it isn’t.
Question: How does a girl get a marriage proposal, join in a curry party and encounter a singing night- nurse from her hospital bed all in the same evening?
Answer: Be diagnosed with cancer, have major surgery and experience the NHS.
It wasn’t how things were meant to go. I was hurtling along life’s road, working whilst raising three young children when I crashed head first into cancer. Before I knew it I had to take a course in survival and learn a whole new world of hospitals. Add to that a dose of MRSA, a five year drug trial and a whole cast of hilarious characters and you’ve just about got the idea.
This is my roller -coaster ride, my triumph over adversity, my story of hope and survival.
