"While I was going through cancer, I just wanted to protect my family from my worries and the worst of my treatment."
"A lot of my school friends at the time wanted to bubble-wrap me and they questioned what I should be doing"
"I really do think every young person who is diagnosed with cancer deserves to be supported by Teenage Cancer Trust - they really do make all the difference. The support I received has completely changed my journey and they are a large part of why I am still around today."
"Even though I wasn't being treated on a unit, I was assigned a Teenage Cancer Trust team who would come out to me, both at my local hospital and at home."
"Having cancer is such a life changing experience. It is only once you finish your treatment that you have the time to take into consideration everything you have been through."
"I felt alone isolated and I also struggled with food and I got quite upset a lot of the time."
