I call her mummy, she calls me brave

While mummy navigates treatment for secondary cancer, there are sure to be some changes that affect the whole family, whether its frequent hospital visits, changes in energy levels or changes in appearance. Allowing children the chance to understand and process these changes through honest and open communication can prevent them from feeling confused and alone. This story depicts a young family, impacted by a parental diagnosis of stage 4 cancer and focusses on the theme that true bravery lies in the courage to share our difficult feelings even when we might not want to.

Written by Mum of two, Nicola, who lives with her own diagnosis of stage 4 breast cancer, this book provides a gentle introduction to incurable cancer, to aid honest communication between parents and their children, to encourage inclusivity and provide a platform which facilitates the sharing of feelings and emotions between parent and child.
