"You’re So Much Stronger Than You Think": One Family's Double Battle with Childhood Cancer

Dela

This week on Happy Mum, we are joined by strong, inspiring and incredible mother of two Sophie Derry.


When Sophie's daughter Odette started vomiting on car journeys and having headaches, doctors initially put it down to travel sickness. An eye test changed everything, revealing a brain tumour that would lead to emergency surgery and fifteen further operations over seven months. Before the family could catch their breath, Sophie's younger daughter Eliza was diagnosed with leukaemia.


Sophie opens up to Gi about what it's like to face childhood cancer not once but twice -- the fear, the exhaustion, and the moments of hope.
