I never thought the cancer would have taken a back seat and almost be forgotten about until 26th July 7.10 am. This was the time when the phone rang and I  was called into hospital to say Tracy had a 50/50 chance of making it.

Tuesday prior she was ambulanced in after the unexplainable stomach pains since starting chemo took on a whole new level and after a night of extreme pain it was confirmed her bowel had perferated. Emergency surgery followed at the same time that her white blood cells where dropping post chemo.

I won't paint a nice picture or say that it will be allright because there isn't one to be painted and it's not.

Unconcious and supported by every tube, drug and antibiotic you could fit into her tiny 5ft nothing body I just looked down at her and cried.

Should I write this for all to see? To be honest I don't give a fuck.

How do you prepare your 7 year old for the fact that her mummy may go to be with her dear friend Kerry who passed away last year to be with the angels in heaven?

You find a way. You get up in the morning, you deal with what the day throw's at you and you go to bed and then pray this brings you one day closer to this all being over.

10 days on and my girl has dug in. She continues to fight and yes emotionally she has been hit hard but our little family still hang's on in there.

PLEASE GOD....  no more now.

To Tracy and Evie I will never give up, I will be here for you always. Lxxx

Liam,Tracey and Evie you are in my thoughts. We prayed and fought to keep our son alive thirteen years ago, he's still here to tell the tale-it's horrendous, mind numbingly draining but some how you find the strength. You need to be able to write on your blog exactly as it is, however hard because it helps. I work daily now with brave fighting individuals who have been through the most awful, drug induced trauma, it's hard, it's frightening and it's cruel. I'm a district nurse caring for those with cruel life threatening cancers, I know you have to be able to 'off load' so do not apologise for doing that through your blog. You are a brave individual, when I met you at the end of July I had no idea what you were going through, for that I applaud you- keep praying, stay strong and never loose hope xxx

It is difficult to know what to write given I cannot even begin to comprehend what you guys must be going through.

I think you are all so incredibly brave, this is such an unjust thing to happen but your 'big' girl sounds like a fighter and with you guys in support I am sure you will all get through this.

I am not necessarily a religious man but I will say prayer for you.

keep up the good fight and do not let this B*st*rd thing beat you.

Hi Liam
I was just checking your website to make sure you were open again when I read your diary entry...so sad! I'm so sorry to read about what you, your wife and daughter are going through. Keep hanging in there... I'm sure you're doing the best job of it that you possibly can.
I hope to be in the shop in the next 10 days or so.
Very best wishes, Jill
