Sara wrapped up radiotherapy on Tuesday! We had good meetings with immunotherapy clinics and the team in Giessen. We’re heading home to Southampton for the first time in months. Looking forward to a short break before diving in again. gofund.me/357afe0a

Sara’s radiotherapy is on track to wrap up soon; next therapies start in a few weeks. She had a tough day yesterday due to a seizure episode, but things are under control now & she’s back to herself, resting at home. Thanks, as always, for your support 💚 gofund.me/357afe0a

Sara finished her 2nd week of radiotherapy. She’s felt a few side effects, and there’s always a lurking anxiety about complications. Sara’s sister has written a short piece on some of the challenges we’ve been facing, and how you can help also beyond our specific case. ♥️
