“I don’t second question anything!”
Here we meet 24 year old Amy who was diagnosed with Stage 2B Hodgkin’s Lymphoma after experiencing night sweats, infections, itchiness and a lump. Amy tells us how she was initially put into remission in February 2015 but unfortunately in April 2016 a scan revealed that the tumour in her chest had grown twice the size of the original tumour. Amy has since had two different chemotherapy regimes (ICE & Brentuximab) and is currently waiting to hear whether her current regime is having any impact on her tumour but in the meantime Amy says tries to live how she wants to live and how she doesn’t second question anything!
