Fighting since 6 weeks old - Carly Ellis

Gold Ribbon Conversations - The podcast that supports those fighting Childhood Cancer.

We open up this new season with a powerful conversation with mother of 4 Carly Ennis.

At just 6 weeks old her baby girl Aoife was diagnosed with a tumour on her optic nerve.

We talk about the impact the diagnosis had on her mental health, her career, their finances, her motherhood.

We talk about the weight of the trauma and her breakdown, how disruptive this new life was for her other children and her sources of support.

This episode will help other parents - this conversation is the reality of fighting childhood cancer.
