Guest Blog Post from Stephy @isaac_elijahmum

Foreword: Stephy is an amazing mum who is battling cancer.  I wanted to get her an ipad to make her life easier, my goal was to do this by her next round of 3 weeks of radiotherapy on the 3rd May.  We did this in less than 2 days, which was amazing, people who didn't even know Stephy donated and all of your words of support and encouragement have been sent to her.   You can read about how we did that Here and Here .

This is truly the power of social media!

Here is what Stephy has to say:

Hi this is Steph from @isaac_elijahmum.

I read these posts again last night and it takes a lot for me to cry but I did. I was very emotional and cannot believe you have all done this for me. I'm not special, I'm just me, an ordinary girl from North Wales fighting a stubborn stinky disease called Cancer.
I am totally overwhelmed and taken aback by your generosity, support, beautiful kind words of encouragement and I was left utterly speechless. The post you have written Sophie is also beautiful and that too made me cry especially what you had written about my Isaac. He does truly believe He's Buzz Lightyear and has an imaginary laser arm (left) and Ben 10 special powers on his right arm! He has indeed been trying to magic my hair back !:) He thinks my hair will grow back to how it was prior to chemotherapy over night. Honestly, I kid you not! I have a few follicles sticking up at the front and back now, I'm very pleased with this but no not Isaac! He still thinks I resemble a Man!:))

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank every single one of you so so so so much. My lap top is actually on it's way out too as it's quite old and I don't think it has much longer left to live at all. Thank you very very much indeed. This is such a Lovely, thoughtful and kind thing to do for both Isaac and myself. We will never forget this.

I also promise I will never stop fighting and will continue to get better and beat this disease.
THANK YOU.
XXXXX
