There are time when sadly treatment doesn’t work….This is hard for everyone, and there are some TYA’s that are parents themselves. We have been providing this beautiful book and a rainbow soft toy to stay with each of them, both parent and child ❤️

This may just seem like a bit of fun, which it is, but for one long term patient unable to swallow therefore eat, for weeks due to GVHD…. They savoured every moment of tasting the TimTam before spitting it out and loved it

A bit of tasty fun for TYA inpatients today to follow our Trivia with Australia last week! Similar biscuits, but which one gets the vote?!

Love to see when people make their bed spaces their own whilst an in patient. One such person spends a lot of their time farming, so it only seems only fitting to have farming related builds on the window sill!! 🚜

This was very kindly donated to us by a previous patient. It is very special in that this piece was started whilst an in patient, finished throughout treatment and recovery, and then given back to the ward when they came back to visit feeling happy and well ❤️

Well that was a different call to what I expected…. “Your daughter was kicking a ball at play time and her shoe flew off into a garden. Can you please bring some trainers in for her or she will have to hop all day!!” 🤣

As far as jobs go, being a Teenage Cancer Trust Youth Support Coordinator may have its extreme highs and lows…. but seeing YP on this stage is certainly one of the best highs ❤️
