That cancer kills lots of people. Chemo often sends it packing for a while, but it tends to come back. It killed my mum first time round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd add: especially when you apparently aren't even in remission yet. (Though non-Hodgkin's prognosis has improved a lot in the last 20 years or so...) 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She is at risk of the Curse of Frost. Back in 2013, she was interviewed by David Frost and looked in fine fettle. Last words of interview were Frost saying "See you again for your 90th!" He was dead within months, she has 5 years still to beat that jinx... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
