Louise Spink-Rogers. Louise told us.... 

"When my mum received her cancer diagnosis our world's feel apart. My mum asked that she live with myself & my husband as sadly 2 days prior to her diagnosis my dad was also diagnosed with cancer too. This was a truly difficult time for us all but we did what we could as a family. We shared lots of love & tears. Sadly I became a career, nurse etc & there wasn't much time to be their daughter."
