So accurately written it took my breath away. Us oncology mums and dads have no choice other than to accept what is going on and find a way to live with it. Until Mollys diagnosis, I had never really understood fully how important Hope is. It is what we cling to and is what keeps us going.

My daughter is now 7 years clear and she is thriving.  The worry never leaves but life is so much richer.

I wish your beautiful girl and your family all the very best, she is a total credit to you.

Lots of love from one Scottish fam to another x

Hello, thank you for sharing your thaughts. I started as a mum the same journey at the end of sept 2024. We are french… the love we have for our kids has no nationality. whereever we live, we all bounce in a surrealistic world as soon we know for sure the diagnoctic we feared.

I have learned a lot of things since. Hematology wise ;-) … but most of all I learned the silentce because sometimes there is just nothing to say.. Many times, I just stay with my kid, in the bedroom, and say nothing,


Yes, your daughter is beautifull. Inside and outside. Thank her for sharing her story. She is always positive (and her new dog is so…

I hear ypu with the keeping busy. Erin loves cold water therapy. We are desperate to get back to it when she is able. Take care. D

I enjoyed reading your blog. It's raw yet hopeful. As a parent walking a similar path, most days I feel devastated, exhausted and hollow. Every day I pick it up and we go again with hope and fierce determination, but, it is hard! You've inspired me to keep some notes and get feelings out of my head and heart. Reading your blog is as accurate as it gets. Nothing runs linear, not even your thoughts and emotions. Top Dad keep inspiring!

I felt so many emotions reading this, I have the privilege of following your strong resilient daughter on other platforms, but it's a true testiment to you and your wife for nurturing such an incredible young lady who has captured many hearts 💕

What an incredible insight into your journey. I dont know your family, but Erin's story caught my eye and I've been following her journey. I've been very fortunate not to experience this journey with any of my family, however as as a (now retired) nurse I have. I've been the giver of bad news and felt the pain of feeling inadequate of saying those words, but ive also shared the joy and hope of good news.I wish your family much love and strength. X
