Hello and welcome. What a beautiful part of the world you live in. How easy is it to access treatment where you are? Do you have a good support network of family and friends? How is the Covid19 pandemic affecting you. Sending you warm wishes from a very cold UK.❄️❄️🌈🌈

Very cold and beautiful here at present. Lockdown isn't too bad for us as we live in a house with a garden and have dogs to walk in the countryside. My daughter had germinoma brain tumours when she was 17 treated by radiotherapy, now almost 21 she is reasonably well (on lots of hormone meds) and works with horses. Many of her friends disappeared when she was sick, but a few genuine pals hung around. We are a strong family so she has a team behind her and she leads us all with her resilience. Be super safe with Covid. I hate not being able to see my other daughter who works as a vet nurse as she is protecting us from Covid. Thank goodness for FaceTime, zoom, etc.
