Hi Everyone . How are you all doing? I hope everyone is the best you can be in this moment.
Checking in with an update. Danae is doing well. Last biopsy result has come back negative Feeling VERY thankful.
Danae has moved in to her new place in Bristol and will start her new job next Monday. How cool is that..? I miss her terribly but am so happy and proud.
We still think of you all often and send love and positive thoughts to you all.
I feel weird and still cannot believe we are where we are today. Life moves in mysterious ways.
Stay strong everyone. Be secure in the moment you are in. Keep a positive idea/thought in your mind and heart.
I will keep posting and let you all know how working life goes for DanaeâŚ
Oh @SarahMum and Danae yes, today must be a great day to smile and be happy and also to think how Danaeâs life and yours @SarahMum has evolved in that year.
Danae how is your new job going?
@SarahMum how are you doing without you girl that you love millions?
I met my bestie friend today and yes, smiling, being happy, having a moan and laughter certainly does give me a boost.
Take lots of care of yourselves and I often wonder how my DD are doing xx
Good to hear from you and that you are out and about meeting a friend. The ladies who lunch
I still miss my lovely lady loads but she is having the best time living and working in Bristol. She will be home in two weeks as she is trying again for egg collection (fertility treatment) It will be lovely to have her home for a couple of days
You keep smiling, laughing and having a good ol moan Erica
I hope you are all looking after yourselves out there. We are good here. Danae headed home for Christmas on Monday - it is sooooooo lovely to have my curly girly home
Today she received the most amazing and special call. Her last bone marrow biopsy result is MRD negative. . This biopsy marks 2 years post treatment so⌠no more biopsies. She will move to blood tests every three months and a ECG to monitor her heart (following some heart damage) every year.
I cannot begin to put into words all that I am feeling this evening. After the call we hugged, cried, laughed and did a little dance in the living room. I will post again when I have gathered my thoughts and emotions.
I love my daughter with all my being. I have hated all of this and watching her endure what she has. I canât quite believe where we are today. I am still scared and donât want to say things out loud or disturb the âmonsterâ. But this evening I go to bed soooooo thankful and full of love for my gorgeous daughter and all that have cared for and supported her. That includes all of you special people
I am going to put down my phone now, my eyes full of tears and my heart full of love.
@SarahMum so that feels like the Christmas gift I didnât know I needed! Iâm overjoyed to hear this wonderful news and love that it has come before Christmas, but more importantly, when you were together so you could shine brightly as you celebrated. I hope you know how instrumental and essential you have been in this outcome - there is no doubt our loved ones benefit greatly from our care and selflessness and that they are loved without limit. I do appreciate how important treatment is though!
For now, as my love enters a new year hoping to hear good post chemo results, I take the joy and hope you have expressed here with me. Thank you for that and every good wish from me to you, D and your loved ones x
Oh @SarahMum and Danae, that is brilliant news, Just what I needed, now you can both relax and really enjoy the holiday season together.
You really do have such a very special bond together and I can picture you both doing a âlittleâ dance in the living room, âStrictlyâ eat your heart out.
Have a brilliant time both of you and spoil yourselves.
Hello @SarahMum Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful photo! A very happy birthday to Danae. So pleased you were able to celebrate together last weekend. Thinking of you both. Willow xx
Oh @SarahMum and Danae your post and beautiful photo has made my day
A great big very happy birthday Danae on your 23rd birthday. So glad that you two were able to celebrate it last weekend. I wonder what âhaving a blastâ actually means? I honestly feel part of your family.
Sending you both love and hugs our Dynamic Duo. xxxx
How is everyone doing. I hope that you guys are looking after yourselves and your loved ones.
Guess who I had home for Motherâs Day..? My gorgeous Curly Girly! She is home until Wednesday. We are both working from home and it feels so nice to just be together.
I was spoilt on Motherâs Day with flowers, a beautiful card and a yummy roast!
Danae remains healthy and happy. Look how much her hair has grown!
I continue to be very thankful for every moment and I just love watching her live and love her life.
We still talk about all of you lovely lot and we send love and positive thoughts.
I hope this check in finds you all doing okay and looking after yourself.
It feels a long time since I checked in. We are good and Danae is doing well. She is loving life in Bristol and got a recent promotion in her job.
We enjoyed a fab holiday in Turkey together last month. It was sooooooo special to just chill and have quality and special times with my gorgeous girl
Last week, Danae traveled to London and went to a special show with her lovely friends
Sharing a couple photos with permission. We still think of you all and there isnât a day that goes by without me feeling extremely thankful of where we are.
Oh @SarahMum and Danae, how absolutely wonderful to hear from you with a jam packed catch up, with photos.
I had to laugh, you 2 always have a drinkie in your hands. A holiday in Turkey really does sound what you both needed for special chill out, catch up time together
Firstly a great big congrats to Dane getting a work promotion. I still donât know what I want to do when I grow up.
I certainly always have our DD in my mind and wonder what you are getting up to.
I am doing OK although having several minor pre cancer ops on my head, face and ear and getting a lot of sympathy from people thinking that I have had a bad fall 'cose my face is stitched and bruised !!
Sending those positive thoughts and vibes back to you both. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
So lovely to hear from you @SarahMum and what wonderful photos! Thank you for sharing them and sending an update!
Danae looks amazing and seems to be living life to the full! So very pleased!
Wishing you a lovely summer!
Best Wishes,
Heidi J (Support Services Nurse)
