Introduction


    

I am Ellie Waters, a 14 year old girl from Northampton. I love school, sports and socialising, but there is only one thing stopping me from doing the things I love...cancer.
It was so unexpected how my life changed in what seemed like a click of a finger. One minute I was a healthy teenage girl, but the next minute I was aware that my body was being taken over by a deadly beast!
It has nearly been 3 months since I received the life changing news. These past 3 months have been the hardest of my life, and I find writing a great way of coping. Writing about my feelings and experiences has helped me psychologically to deal with everything, it is as if you are putting all your emotions on a piece of paper so that they hurt you less. Now I want to share what I have written with you so I can advise and inform you about my journey, and the journey that sadly millions of people have to suffer too.
Thank you for reading, keep tuned with my blog as there are still many amazing posts to come!

  5. Today I found out that my 17 year old nephews biopsy on a tumor that was found in his nasal cavity was diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma. I am very scared for him and for the road that he will face. Can you recommend any advice. Anything at all helps.
