Sorry to read this MRS - I work with someone who's been dealt a similarly harsh hand the last few years and thankfully you're both positive people.

Poor lass is suffering from the chemo today. Cancer treatment is just so brutal. I can really sympathise with her, I went though chemotherapy in early 2009. I really used to hate that when I had pretty well got over one cycle of treatment I knew I was going to feel really rough for a few weeks when the next one started. She should forget the unpleasantness once the treatment stops. I had a target to aim for when it was over; seeing my old school friend in southern Spain the week after treatment stopped and driving to SpaItalia about 6 weeks later. I'm sure it helped.

Oh Richard, so sorry to hear that the family is having to deal with this horrible disease again, absolutely and totally bloody unfair  As I know you live some distance from Cambridge, and I don't, please do shout if you, or Eve ever need any help or assistance at this end.

Sorry to read this. I hope the treatment goes well, at least she has seen her brother beat it so knows the treatment is worth any side effects.

This what someone about to get leukaemia looks like  Unbelievable. All of you have been in my thoughts since I read your first post on Friday. As a dad of two kids I can try to imagine what you must be going through. All strength to you all, and wishing a speedy recovery. Ps Just looked up the symptoms of [url=https://www.teenagecancertrust.org/get-help/ive-got-cancer/types-cancer/leukaemia][/url] leukaemia. Thanks

Day 6 and the dr says Eve is doing "really great" (dr is American) and has "flown through" the first 5 days with none of the complications that can occur. 4 more days of chemo then 2-3 weeks of getting bone marrow back into shape.
Eve has the positivity of her dad so is pretty upbeat at this news. Good to hear-wishing her well.

Sending you best wishes mate and healthy thoughts.........
I had a year of it over 2015/16 as my wife was diagnosed with the big C then 6 weeks later so was my sister. We spent Christmas Eve 2015 having chemo - Mrs Nello in one room and Sister Nello literally in the room next door. Pleased to report both doing well and post treatment all looking good fingers crossed. If theres one thing it has taught me its to not automatically think of the worst when you first hear the 'Cancer' word. Theres so much more they can do these days. Anyway all the very best.

Day 11 - chemo is finished and Eve continues to do very well. The consultants have been around today and are very happy with her. One said that AML patients tend to fall into two groups - those that have lots of problems with the treatment and those that sail through and Eve, he thinks, is in the latter. The other consultant said that the genetic markers of the leukaemia have so far shown nothing really bad and, if the stars align, might be very good. My fingers are well-and-truly crossed. We had a scary weekend because a doctor had said that, given her age, she was at risk of having the bad stuff. Uncertainty is the worst part of cancer treatment - it's insideous and eats away at you.
Eve has (what my kids call) "chemo brain" where you can't concentrate on anything. She's lost loads of weight and is getting lots of transfusions.
Hugh (youngest son) continues to be a real star. He's coming down from Scotland on Thursday with Mrs MRS (who went up yesterday) to be tested as a potential bone marrow donor. He's desperate to help his sister. When Charlie was diagnosed both of his best friends at primary school (he was only 11) had a parent diagnosed with terminal cancer in the same week. I'm so proud of him.
Thanks again for all of your support. Your post sounds more positive and good to hear that she has the warmth and support of your great family. Hope this continues so that this becomes a distant memory your daughter and family. Best Wishes Hanny and family

Such are the highs and challenges of cancer treatment: had to bring Eve into A&E just before midnight because she had a temp spike of 38.7C
We're under strict instructions to bring her in within an hour if her temp exceeds 38.0C
She's (we're) back on the TCT ward on precautionary IV antibiotics whilst they test for bugs. We were admitted at 3am - as it happens at exactly the same time as another patient. Eve's fine - most likely a response to one of the chemos
A&E at Friday midnight is a grim place
