Tamsyn, the mother of a son with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia shares how her world changed in an instant when she was given her son’s diagnosis and talks honestly about what it is like to share your life with cancer.
Tamsyn is a 30 year old mother of two who lives in Queensland, Australia with her husband and children. She currently cares full time for her son since her son’s diagnosis in Feb 2014 and says that the past year has taught her a great deal about childhood cancer. She plans on using her experience to help and educate others about childhood cancer and all it involves.
She begins her blog with the words, “The day you get told your child has cancer is the most unnatural day of any parents life. The days that follow are surreal and just as unnatural as the day your baby got diagnosed. From that day forward, nothing is the same, your life and the life of your children is changed forever, because from that day forward…You share your life with cancer….”
She writes about the many things for which you are not prepared, and surprisingly, some of them are good.
