Hi John and Mandy, I was so shocked to hear about your news, I hope this gives you both a bit of hope. I was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer in 2020. Now after 3 years of fight I got news I am now in remission and the hospital are signing me off.. Mandy staying positive helps it helped me and I feel that you will pull through. All my love guys.
Stage 4 colon cancer is not the same as 2a cervical cancer and can easily be cured
@@juliadevlin7815 yes I know that they are completely different, but the experience of having cancer, chemotherapy for 6 months was a hard journey for myself and my family, I stayed positve throughout and I found this helped alot. I am sure Mandy and John will stay positive as this horrible illness can be beaten back and they can have a happy and fun filled life together.
Good luck with all your treatment Mandy thinking of you both xxx
Hey guys x I was diagnosed with incurable brain cancer in November 2023. So I know the shock that you are going through. I think it’s great that you are sharing your journey on here, awareness is key! I am doing radiotherapy and chemo and plan on exceeding the prognosis the Drs have given me! Sending you positive thoughts, and healing energy. You got this!!! ❤
The pair of you are, to coin a phrase, "ruddy Amazing!" Have been following you for a few years, but have literally seen every video, followed your journey, been inspired, laughed and cried. You got this!
Happy anniversary guys, keep strong and focused, ask lots of questions, my mum was diagnosed with 2a at 50,she was treated at Christie’s and lived until 82, keep smiling ❤xxx
Hi John, Hi Mandy, I Both I found Mandy’s channel last week & I subscribed I have just found your joint channel & I have subscribed to your joint channel 👍 Mandy, & John, I really wish you both all the very best in your journey I am sending you both lots of virtual hugs & a lot of love to you both 💞🦋 Lin
Oh bless you both….I’m so sorry your having to endure all this…
Unfortunately the chemotherapy does affect your legs and movement……some chemotherapy does make you feel ill,some loose their hair..
Theirs various forms of chemotherapy treatments ….strengths and formats.
Eating and drinking is another new experience…
You can do it…your strong,your together facing it,helping each other.
Make sure you write everything down you want to ask….
Treatment,timings,waiting for results is draining but just deal with things one thing at a time….
Sending you both so much love and prayers……..❤️&🙏🏻. 👍🇬🇧
Thank you so much for the update…
Mandy & John, firstly sorry to hear you are having to go through this. I have just been given all clear after 10 years. I was stage 3&4 cervical cancer. I had a fantastic consultant at Doncaster Royal Infirmary. I opted for surgery (radical hysterectomy) as if it came back as I understand once you had radiation you can’t have it again. I had extra parts removed as well as repair to bladder and bowel. Looking back I don’t regret my choice. I had a daughter that I wanted to see grow up and she is nearly 28 now. Going through a forced menopause was no biggie in comparison to what could have been. Don’t be talked down to by doctors, just remind them you are the patient and you have the final say…they have nothing without your consent. I wish you well, listen to your body, rest when it needs rest and sleep when it is tired. Much love from me and my family in Lincs
When I had my radical hysterectomy I found getting in and out a van a lot easier than a car as your not bending so much and can just slide out ❤, you will get tired and need rest time I do think I would have been better in our motorhome than in home ,no steps and much nicer to be able to just ride out and see something different if you feel up to it ❤❤❤
Take care and God Bless You both.💞🙏🙏💞
Please stay strong and you can beat this if you want more info on braci or anything I can help I had stage 3 and I’m all good!!! X you hear so many horror stories but if u stay positive you’ll be ok x
Thinking of you both and you are always in my prayers. You have each other which is wonderful. Bless you both xxx
Bless you both xx
I hope all works out well for you .
I'm not very good with words but i want to wish you all the very best and hope that you will get good news soon. Godbless you both, and all your family XX
John, the best way you can help Mandy is to be there for her. So don't worry about your tractical support, you are more than OK. ! All the best for both of you !
Hi hope all goes well for you Mandy and just for information I've been through leukemia myself and had loads of chemotherapy I don't know if it's the same for you but I was advised not to be near lots of people and advised not to go into supermarkets and that due to chemotherapy giving you low amune system. Also I've not heard ov don't sleep with someone in same bed as I did anyway years later no worries and also stairs can be a problem depending on how tired you are after treatment ( I don't do stairs now) hopefully this helps you and not worried you
Guys, huge hugs to you both... my only comment is to suggest you make a written list of questions to take into doctor's appointment but don't ask your questions until the doctor has told you what they are going to - then, when they are finished, ask what hasn't been answered. If you ask your questions first before they tell you what they plan to they may just answer your questions and not tell you other things they were going to tell you that you might not have thought of. Again, love and hugs, G xx
Its such a blessing believe me to have such a strong and loving husband who cares and supports you mine has literally saved my life.
Happy Anniversary guy's and so much love to you both keep strong and your amazing 👏
Just do whatever you guys feel like doing! Sharing and talking about it on socials, can be a therapy and if it helps then we'll all be here to support you! 😊
I would suggest from a comfort perspective and seeing my mum go through a similar cancer, Mandy, you will probably want your own space, bedroom to rest/sleep. I personally think it would be tough to stay in the vans. Even if you just do that at the start and see how you get on, then adjust as you see fit. Xx
Mandy & John - we send you both massive hugs and positive vibes - we are currently nearly a year into our full-time vanlife and we were in no small way inspired by you two, which we will always be grateful for, and still are. Stay as healthy as is possible right now and keep looking after each other and out for each other. You are both brave, strong and bloody lovely people and deserve all the love and support that's coming your way. Nicky & Kevin xx
You are such an amazing couple. Happy Anniversary and best wishes to you both xx
John, you are doing more than you think, being there for Mandy and supporting her though all this is really important,you need to take care too hugs to you both xx
MacMillan nurses are amazing a great source of information and knowledge, Audio books are great for taking your mind off things especially when on your treatment. Wishing you all the success in the world x
I know you say "talking" helps you but I feel it is so generous of you to be so open in sharing your experiences involved in your latest journey 💗
Ann
Your on a conveyor belt to them. I find it on the whole an impersonal experience these appointments .
I have a catch up once a month with the head consultant who is by far a more personal experience. 20 years ago went through the same thing doesn’t seemed to have changed a great deal. You have done the right thing by openly talking about your personal journey with cancer well done to both of you. Xx
Although I’ve followed you for a while,I’ve never commented,I’m praying that treatment goes well for you and it’s been caught early,all my best wishes.
You two are both amazing. I just can't imagine what your emotions must be like going through all this. John. Just keep doing what you are doing to support Mandy as her health will alter going through her treatment. I think the reason Dr's seem so flippant is because they see hundreds of patients and it becomes like a production line. I'm sending you both such a big hug. And hope you can both stay positive. But there will be days when it feels so hard to do. Lots of love. Sue ❤❤❤
Good luck. Having a understanding and good communicating oncologist is very important to understand your situation. My wife had a incredible oncologist who had time to answer every question my wife asked and explained every procedure in detail. It made a massive difference to us on our successful journey 12 years ago 🤞🤞🤞. You can and will do it
Hi John and Mandy 👋🏻 Firstly happy wedding anniversary, I’m so glad you had a lovely meal to mark the occasion 💞
I don’t often comment on YT but as soon as I heard about Mandy’s diagnosis, I like many others, booked my smear as I was a few months overdue because we’d relocated and therefore I’d changed Doctors. So thank you for highlighting how important it is. We will be following you as you navigate dodging this curveball life’s thrown at you.
Both myself and my husband are behind you all the way, we think you’re handling it really well and are exactly in the right frame of mind to enjoy ‘normality’ until you have to get off at the station and wait for the next train. Sending positive thoughts, prayers, hugs and love ❣️Liz & Gray xx
Lots of love xx. Will be thinking of you x. My husband had a genetic cancer which is being treated every four weeks. His cancer will never go but he will live with it so I know how your heads are feeling right now. Be strong be brave xx
Hope all goes well for you Mandy.. John's a rock for you,,👍
Sending Love and Prayers For You Both, hoping that The PET scan doesn’t show any further spread, and Your treatment doesn’t cause Mandy any bad side effects. Stay positive. 🙏🏻
Hi John + Mandy 🙏 for your treatment and recovery. Wishing you both all the best. 👍 xx
I'm glad that your case worker was with you.
I imagine that the nurses know a lot of the things that doctors don’t think to say. And that you got a meal in the evening. ❤❤
Take care lovely crew
Firstly, I am really glad you both enjoyed your wedding anniversary and got to celebrate your special day. This may sound weird but I’m so happy that the diagnoses is 2a & that you don’t have to have radical surgery. John don’t feel at a loss at not being able to fix this, just being by Mandy’s side taking care of her will be the most important help that you can give.
On a practical note, maybe it would be worth enquiring about a short-term apartment, house let or static home, speaking from experience with my Mom and cousin both having had breast cancer (thankfully now all clear), they were both quite poorly & very tired after treatment and just wanted to get home and straight into bed because it took quite a bit out of them.
Sending you love 💕 & positive thoughts from Caroline - part of your online family 😊
The staff at The Queen's Centre are wonderful.
It's good they've caught it early.
You two are a great team.
Hugs for you both. xx
Hi John & mandy this video is so difficult from your normal ones but this one and many more in the short term will help many until cancer and how affects people and not always the one with cancer it can happen to me my wife or anyone else around me over night I will continue to watch you both so I can understand just incase it happens to me or anyone in my family xx take care both of you
I am having a laugh at the hospital parking part of the video. It was mayhem at our local hospital the other day with people having no idea of how to park and pay. There was a cue of 20 cars trying to get out while a person left their car at the barrier and went off to the pay station to pay. It was carnage.
I have been looking after my wife, following heart surgery and she has been getting very frustrated that she cannot do what she normally does. She has a 12 month recovery ahead of her, but it is tiny steps at a time.
You hang in their the pair of you and keep smiling. 🙂
mandy im a man and have had 2 PET scan dont be shoked when they come with the radiation it will come in a metal box with the big yellow sign on it and then you have to wait about 30 min plus but the scan is similar , good luck and as a true christian ill say prayer for you
Not been in touch in a while. Happy anniversary ❤. We live near Miller and Carter in Bottesford.You have both got this. Stay strong. Castle Hill has a great reputation. You may start treatment at Castlehill then continue at Scunthorpe. I know they have closed lots of departments in Scunthorpe. So keep asking questions until you understand. Sending a big virtual hug.
Just want to say I’m thinking of you both. You’re both strong and you’ll get through this together. Sending my love 💞
Big positive hugs from me and the missus . Mandy you will come out the other side stronger and even more positive . John you are a rock . ...
We are thinking about you both lots. The waiting for tests and results is the worse bit. Soon you will be working through your treatments. Sending hugs 💜
Totally get you John, you want to be informed so you can help Mandy as much as possible and how useless you feel not being able to make it better. Sending love to you Mandy. Can only send you positive vibes daily. I'm not religious in any way but know im rooting for a quick and full recovery ❤
Hi John and Mandy it’s really great to see you both sending love and hugs keep safe 🙂👍🏻
Very brave decision to share your story - I think it’s commendable and hope that it not only gives you strength but others who are also affected - fingers crossed that the treatment works and with the minimum of side effects x
Thinking about you both. Virtual hugs from Wolverhampton. Hope the next scan brings the best possible outcome x
Wishing you all the best and from personal experience with my mom castle hill is an amazing hospital the staff are loving and patient and will hopefully give you all the answers you guys want they are amazing there ❤
I believe sharing can be beneficial, either way, we're all here with you's 🙏❤️
The pair of you are amazing….I’m sure you will smash it Mandy you are such a positive person ….x
John just being there for mandy is all the help . You can be .
Thinking of you both through this scary time. 🤗
Thank you for the update guys! You are always positively in my prays.
P;S Love your sense of humour 😆 that car park scene would entertain me for ages..😂
Best wishes and both of you keep strong
sorry to hear that myself and partner have been watching yous for a few years love the channels thinking of yous love from 🏴 xx
Wishing you all the best you're an amazing inspirational couple stay strong thoughts and prayers are with you both much love ❤️
I feel for you both I was diagnosed with Prostate cancer 14 years ago had my treatment everyday for 8 weeks. And recently got informed it has returned, I have had my PET SCAN and MRI and today have been in theatre for my biopsy so currently feel like someone has kicked me so had up my backside but it is wearing off.
Positive thoughts work wonders and you seem to have that in abundance,my advise for what it's worth is, your journey is a marathon not a race you will become tried so don't burn yourself out at the start doing unnecessary things that in the overall picture will wait.
Things will turn out OK in the end
Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear your news.
Not a problem that I would normally tell everyone, but I do believe people should be educated re cancer in whatever form it appears in, and I feel privileged to share this on your platform whom I have followed for some time, and hope the other people take every test available to them🙏🙏❤️
Sending all my thoughts and hugs to you both. Stay strong guys and know that we are all with you on this journey. Take care of each other xx
I have had endometrial cancer twice and am now 4 years clear. My partner had stage 4 melanoma and now 10 years clear. More and more better treatments now.
Can’t imagine what you’re going through! , but I’m sending you my very best thoughts to both of you ❤
big hug for you Mandy
Big hugs, stay strong both of you. In my thoughts. X
Stay strong you two you are doing more than you could ever know to raise awareness thoughts and prayers are with you❤
Can't say I've watched you since day 1 but it's been a good few years. , you've become like telly pals to us we call you by your first names ......oh and for a moment on the vlog I thought Mandy was going to turn round with her bare erse hangin oot 😊
Tons of hugs to you both ❤
Love you guys and I hope everything will work out great, and a speedy recovery for Mandy ❤
Happy Anniversary to you both, lovely to see you both again, my heart goes out to both of you. I’m so glad you love the comments from everyone being so supportive. You are both an amazing couple I love watching you, sending you big hugs to the both of you, you’ve got this Mandy, take each day as it comes and keep positive, am thinking of you both and my prayers are with you, take care both of you xxx
Huge love to you both. You are approaching this as you do everything - in a positive and open way. Just awesome. 💪👏😁❤️❤️
Well done on using Macmillan and Cancer Care services - look out for Maggie's centre nearby. Be as well as you both may be. Take things gently if possible. xxx
Beautiful, strong, brave and kind lady. Praying 🙏 for you.❤
Hi both thanks for sharing your progress. If it’s any consolation family members who are going through cancer treatment experienced the same attitude at there appointments and were left feeling the same way as you did. A lack of awareness to the patient trying to adjust to their diagnosis for the first time. Also a lack of answers meaning a lot of waiting which can have its toll on mental health.
I hope you find plenty of nice things to do to help pass the time. Big 🫂stay strong one thing you have bundles of is each others support and love. ❤
I know this may sound weird, but when you start chemo and radio therapy, you kind of get into a strange routine, in my wife’s case 5 days on 2 days off for 5 weeks. It was incredibly hard. But, John, I am sure you will be a rock and make sure Mandy is as comfortable as is possible. We ended up staying in a little flat on the grounds of the Freeman hospital in Newcastle, directly across from the Maggies Centre (they are wonderful). It was at the back end of Covid so we isolated as much as we could as we didn’t want any bugs interfering with the treatment. Our crazy regime included a streamed episode of Death in Paradise each night. Crazily the flat only had one picture on the wall which was a cutting from the Guardian of a Great Dane dog in a sidecar. We now have a motorbike and sidecar (a Ural). There’s no nice way of putting it, it will be hard, physically and mentally, but we met so many amazing people on our journey. Mandy I’ll be thinking of you ringing the bell when your treatment is finished.
good luck
🎉 happy anniversary 🎉 thank you so much for keeping us informed of everything going on, sending lots of love and positivity
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Holding you both in the Light. Having had a motorhome similar to yours for five years, I suggest you seriously look into renting an apartment or Airbnb near treatment center for two months once you start chemo and then radiation. Maybe within walk of pubs and parks for days you feel up to it.
big love as always ❤ Everything will be alright in the end, and if its not alright then its not the end.
Good luck mandy xx shocked to see you at my local hospital I live 5 mins away xx
Sorry you got brushed off by the consultant and didn’t receive the information and empathy you deserve folks. Sadly this is fairly typical through the NHS, especially at the moment when the whole system is creaking at the seams. As a nutritionist myself could I suggest you support yourself with a high protein, fruit and veg diet with plenty of water. I know it’s boring but chemo is hard on the body and a good diet and adequate hydration will help you very significantly. If you’d like a free consultation please feel free to contact me and I’d be happy to offer you a zoom call to help you out or I can recommend a good professional nutritionist who has experience with cancer patients.
In better news, stage 2a is relatively good news and quite an early diagnosis so that’s a positive. Thinking of you both 🙏❤
sending my best wishes to you Mandy You got this brave lady ! xxx
Sending positive thoughts and the very best wishes guys 🙏
Thanks for the update.sending my prayers and love.x
❤ love to you both x
So glad to hear it’s treatable , & happy anniversary x

Take care both x
God bless you both. I’ve heard cutting out refined sugar is so helpful to stopping any cancer growth. Eat clean! Feed your body with the best things you can, full of veg. Sugar can feed cancer growth. And importantly surround yourself with love and family and friends. Prayers for you ❤❤❤
Thinking of you both x
Stay strong!
Sending you 💕 hugs and positivity
God Bless you, two! That sounds like alot of radiation!. be careful the radiation doesn't burn you. will keep you in my prayers
Happy Anniversary
Stay strong ❤
My husband had chemotherapy and we shared a bed.
Mind yourselves guys❤
About 18 months ago i was diagnosed with cancer in a number of parts of my body, they wanted me to have Chemo Therapy but i refused so they suggested Immunotherapy, Treatment is similar to Chemo but with Chemo it attacks Cancer but reduces you immunity to anything about leaving you vulnerable . Immunotherapy Turbo charges your Immune system to fight off any infection or disease. There is side effects if you have strong double treatment but i have been on treatment for over a year and am almost clear of cancer and back to normal, have seen some patients have Chemo then switch to Immuno after so you should look into it. ps one side effect i had was all my hair including eye lashers turned white. It can also effect your Thyroid Gland, wish you well.
All the best, Keep breathing. Enjoy Nerf Wars. Lots of love from myself and the boys (Milo and Teddy)xxx
Haaha.. with the MRI girls feel pee, Boys feel like they poo't their self.. well that's what it felt like to me.. (John, I did note..? all that dust on your dashboard, dirty boy).. I know a few that lost their hair and when it grow back they where back to the natural colour with no grey.. But the thought of both of you with a bold head...??? On that thought, stay safe Both and see ya soon.. xx
I didn't want to Like this video, but love it, love to both of you! But you guys are awsome and you have my best wishes!
