Jacky Fredrickson talks about her book 'JON'.  This is a book about her son who she lost to brain cancer. Jon was 16 when he started to complain of headaches and sickness. An eyesight test revealed the shocking news that he had developed a brain tumour. Over the months and years that followed Jon and his devoted family endured a roller-coaster ride of treatment and therapy, diagnosis and disappointment, until finally no more could be done for Jon, and he died at the age of only 26 with his devoted parents at his bedside. Jon’s illness did not prevent this brave young man from setting up home on his own, travelling around the country independently and embarking on a successful career. His mother Jacky kept a diary of her years of trial, and she has now developed it into this moving and inspiring book.

Chris Lewis talks about his experience of living with stage 4 Mantle Cell Lymphoma for over 12 years.  

Until July 2007 Chris was a self-employed Business Consultant.  It was then that Chris was diagnosed with a rare blood cancer and given only six months to live! After aggressive chemotherapy and a stem-cell transplant Chris was surviving the terrible disease. 

"I saw how poor the cancer support sector really was, being so disjointed and not really addressing any practical issues, that I decided to talk out about it to see if I was the only one who felt that way. I wasn’t, and very quickly, friends of mine had started me a website dedicated to cancer patients to help spread the word. 

This site is now the most popular cancer blog in the UK and I am frequently invited to speak around the world about my experiences. I can now use my influence to change things for everyone affected by cancer, and I have been able to start a unique charity SimPal that gives free phones and sim cards to anyone affected by cancer. The only charity of it’s kind in the world".
