Seven weeks after my diagnosis, I finally felt like I was making progress. My treatment was working, and for the first time, I was given a break from hospital appointments—something that felt like a huge win.

But recovery isn’t just about the physical side.

In this episode, I talk about missing work, meeting my Guvnor Dave Bowers, and being reminded not to rush back. I also share the reality of boredom and isolation—and how finding a CML support group helped me feel less alone.

This chapter is about small wins, honest moments, and realising that even in the toughest times, you don’t have to face it on your own.
