I've known this news for a while now, and it pains me to pass it on tho those who care through your messages, or donations for Immy's DNA sequencing.   At her last scan it was found that Imogen's brain cancer has returned, with three or four tumors found in the brain and spine.   For the time being she remains symptom free, and treatment options are being considered by the family.   Please keep Imogen, her brother Micah, her parents Karen and Adrian and the extended family in your prayers.

Crap news.

As the father of a child who's survived a brain tumour and all associated treatments, and an adult nephew who's just had his third surgery but managed to go further than others with his type of cancer, I fully feel this.

My family is credited with being stubborn and wilful.

Pete has also shown a very stubborn and wilful approach to cancer.

I sincerely hope that Immy has this trait

Always sad when children suffer.  Here's praying for a cure.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Not so good news Pete. We are praying for Imogen and all of the family and for the doctors that they would choose the right treatment for her. This stuff is a roller coaster.
Hope you and Chris are coping ok.

We got this news about the same time I was told that my own cancer was gone.  Where's the fairness??   My joy is flattened by Immy's bad news.

Mate - We all have our own path to lead and we cannot control what will happen to us. Thru your own experience you now have the empathy to help Immogen thru this period for her.

We are here for you if / when you need us.

Make sure that Imogen & family use the support services available. Camp Quality has some great programs. Childhood Cancer Association has options including holiday house (& houseboat? being talked about when i was on the board)  great for a getaway & respite. But then, knowing WCH, already under control.

As a cancer survivor and as Immy's uncle, this video made me cry.  I understand first hand the dark depths,  and the miracle of remission, that cancer treatment can bring.   There are angels all around us in the form of family, friends, nurses and dogs who take care of us, both mentally and physically, and give us faith, strength, endurance and hope.  God's miracles do happen, and they happen through the work of skilled and wise doctors, researchers and scientists.   Please get behind the Biggest Morning Tea, and help raise funds for cancer research. https://www.biggestmorningtea.com.au/   Funds raided will support angels and miracle workers.   Amazing progress has been made through cancer research in recent years, but the need remains great.

Many of  you have supported Imogen through donations for research and DNA profiling of her cancer, through prayer and best wishes, all of which I have passed on to her family.    Sadly, the disease that our little Immy has battled since she was six (now almost thirteen) has returned with a vengance. Treatment and management options are limited and it sadens me to advise that she is gravely ill.
Please keep Imogen and her extended family in your prayers.
