There has been a debate printed in my local newspaper concerning my pay out. Although I have not let out how much I have recieved, some people are not happy as my payment (they think) is in excess of what they would get. One person has accussed me of dragging my family through the press which I haven’t. I don’t feel I have to justify myself to anyone and have asked in the forum if the person/people complaining would honestly sit back and say/do nothing if they were in this position. I don’t think they would. I am not entitled to Industrial injury benefit which is included in the link below.

I have a lump sum payment of 6 figures, that is all these people know. As I have said before, do not knock me, if you want to vent your anger, direct at those who gave us this life sentence.

On a lighter note, my eyebrows are growing back. I have been without them for about 10 months and have been thinking of having them tattooed on. I have lost them due to Alopecia and not chemo as I have not had any. They are pure white so I will be tinting them when the time is right.
