In case you were not aware Emma Day, who blogs over at Crazywithtwins, has Cancer Again. She is only 27 years old and Mother to one year old twin girls plus a six year old singleton daughter.
She had to have a hemithyroidectomy and the results showed that due to the results on the right side of her thyroid ( a large tumour of Cancer) she would have to have internal radiotherapy.
The worst part of this is that she will have to remain isolated for 5 days – not allowed any visitors and anything she takes in will have to be thrown away. For 10-16 days after that she will not be allowed 1-2 (preferably 3) metres from any other human being, but 21-28 days from the twins AFTER the isolation.
Emma is grateful to the kindness from others at this difficult time.
So blogger Phil from Fragments from Firefly Phil approached Victoria over at Verily Victoria Vocalises and so the Shoulder to Shoulder to Day Bloghop was born.
It starts today and will last from 22nd May 2013 to 23rd June 2013 to cover the period when Emma will not be able to hug/kiss/touch/go near her twins.
You can see the rota of who is hosting the bloghop each day here and what it is that we all need to do. You will see that it is being hosted here on TUESDAY 4TH JUNE 2013.
I hope you will all join me to help support Emma.
As Emma will have to throw everything she takes into hospital with her I thought I would make her something to take in.
This is the contents of the jar of happiness
To give her some sparkle I put the glitter inside some sellotape.
The contents don’t look a lot but do have meaning.
This is the message that goes inside the jar so that Emma knows why she has each of the objects inside the jar.
You can sponsor Emma in the Cancer Research UK Race for Life here
