I'm still halfway through this last cycle, so much still to process on every level.” Ali continued: “Chemo is major.The oncology nursing team at the Dunmanway CUH are INCREDIBLE, I said to them as I left… it's not that I never want to see them again because I love them all so much, I just hope the next time I do we all have a glass of Prosecco in our hands raising money and awareness for all their incredible work. “For anyone going through this, you think the end will never come and then through the fog… the goal posts appear.
You are not alone.Thank you all so, so much. I read every kind word of support and it honestly gets me through xxxxxxx” followed by four heart emojis.
