This episode is a first for me. I speak to Angie, a patient who I first looked after in 2021 whilst she was receiving chemotherapy for AML. She went on to have a successful stem cell transplant and is ready to share her story.

There are so many unexpected lessons here and it's a must listen for anyone involved in caring from haemato-oncology patients. You also need to listen to this to find out why I compared her to a kiwi after she had had to shave her head.

WARNING: I do not recommend listening to this if you are a patient or a relative of someone who has recently been diagnosed with acute leukaemia.
