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.If you’d like to show your support for some of the charities that have been there for Sophie, you can find links to them below:PASIC https://www.pasic.org.ukWhen You Wish Upon a Star https://www.whenyouwishuponastar.org.ukYoung Lives v Cancer https://www.younglivesvscancer.org.uk Hosted on Acast.
