Ups and Downs
Diagnosed with Non Hodgkin’s Lymphoma at the end of November, here we are introduced to 25-year-old Katie Mackintosh. As she prepares for her fourth cycle of chemo, Katie explains how she is feeling and the side effects that are taking place as a result of treatment. We follow Katie at each stage throughout the cycle, getting regular updates on how it’s going, starting with her feeling surprisingly well and in good spirits until side effects such as achiness and fatigue set in as the days progress. Katie demonstrates how important it is to make time to do normal things, ensuring that activities such as seeing friends and going out are top on the list, even managing a visit to Pizza Hut!
