“Getting cancer is a perfect storm. It takes so much more than a rogue, deformed cell to cause a tumour”
Jackie Buxton, Tea & Chemo: Fighting Cancer, Living Life

“I do think if we can manage to sleep, everything in life is easier.”
Jackie Buxton, Tea & Chemo: Fighting Cancer, Living Life

“Whilst the experts know how cancers are formed, they don’t always know why one person contracts cancer and another doesn’t. Once the well-publicised triggers such as smoking, excessive alcohol, obesity, sun exposure and genetics have been discounted, medicine puts it down to bad luck. In this case we’re grateful for the brilliance of modern treatment and hope that we’re not unlucky again.”
Jackie Buxton, Tea & Chemo: Fighting Cancer, Living Life
