18th February 2007

Fran had been unwell for a few weeks with one thing or another and the week prior we had taken her to A&E several times as she couldn't stop coughing and we had noticed bruising on her legs and arms.

Our local hospital eventually decided to take blood on Sunday 18th February where they then told us that she had Leukaemia. Further tests would tell us what type but her white cell count was so high that they needed to transfer us to Great Ormond Street Hospital immediately so that she could have a confirmed diagnosis and start treatment. It was the most surreal moment of our lives.
