You are a lucky man. You and your wife have raised a beautiful and articulate young lady.
Thank you and your lovely daughter for sharing. This was of particular interest to me as my daughter was 2 when I was diagnosed, she is about to turn 9 but we haven't told her any details. I am lucky to not have had treatment so that makes it a bit simpler to shy away from a chat about mum's "bad blood." Wishing you and your family well xxx
