Our amazing Rose

Wednesday 11th August

Admitting defeat on our gung-ho 'we'll do it from the island' approach to radiotherapy. Rose is desperate not to leave for London but realistically a six hour return journey for ten minutes on the table is going to kill us all. We're going home.

About Rose

Rose: On 21st March 2008 Rose was diagnosed with osteosarcoma - a rare form of bone cancer - in her leg. She had nine months of chemotherapy and a huge operation to remove a massive tumour from her femur and replace it with a metal prosthesis. She learned to walk and live again and had a full year back at school. In November last year Rose relapsed with bone tumours in her lung and had an operation to remove them in February this year. After four more months of remission and hope she now has recurrence once again in her lungs and also in the bones in her arm. She is still our amazing Rose and always will be.
