My 13 year old daughter has bravely battled a germ cell tumour since Aug last year, cruelly she had at one point appeared to be winning and even got to ring the end of treatment bell. But 2 months later the cancer returned and has returned more aggressively.
She has been in hospital most of May, June and July and at one point agsin it looked like she was starting to win the battle but we have just on Friday been given the news there is no more treatment for this and so we are at home with our beautiful, brave girl making the most of the time she has left.
We hope to keep her home, this is where she wants to be until the end. But I am absolutely distraught at what she is going to have to go through. We have discussed a care plan and the palliative care Dr is coming to the house tomorrow. I know we will have a plan, back up of Nurses, medication. But just how do we face the unimaginable?
