To say 2025 has been somewhat challenging is a bit of an understatement.
We've had to say final farewells to 6 friends & family between Jan to June, we were hoping for a bit of an upturn for the second half of the year but that was not to be the case...
V has been a bit under par, progressively getting worse as the months rolled by, early results looked good but as things progressed, she was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer which is 'quite advanced' and has spread to multiple places.
V is recovering (not great TBH) from an operation recently (symptoms of, not removal of the cancer).
She's lost 3 stone the last 6 weeks or so, barely eating and starting to look frail.
We've told the children as much as we know (to be fair, they know things are not right) and answered any questions as brutally honestly as possible, upset at first but seemingly bounced back ok.
As we throw our lives to the hands of medical science, who knows what the next few months hold.
Chemo starts next Friday.
