Thank you so much Suzie - yes the dvt clots were a huge curve ball and pushes mum absolutely over the edge - I hope and prayed it wouldn't break her but she bounced back the next day with a little dose of Valium to help and injected herself at 6 in the morning and has been doing it ever since - she is a such a champion fighter. I think the hardest thing on this journey is the not knowing! You just can't imagine what's coming and it's been like that since the beginning. I'm still in shock that my mums 9cm by 10cm tumour could not be seen on mammogram or ultrasound! It petrifies me x
