A lot has changed since Angie and Karlee’s last show. Lockdown for one. COVID-19 is in full effect and both their countries got it on lock. Lock down that is. COVID-19 and cancer go hand in hand and the girls discuss life at home, life away from friends and family and what keeps them going. In every situation there is a silver lining. And well, Karlee and Angie keep it real by sharing how they feel and identifying the positives. TIME is a key component of the discussion and will be something to think about for years to come. Angie shares that she has gone through a harsh regime of targeted radiotherapy for a new primary lung cancer. Active treatment during COVID-19 is not easy for the faint-hearted and she even rode her bike to her radiotherapy sessions to avoid COVID-19 the best she could. Again, without a choice but a new route to carrying on. Karlee feels for Angie and reassures her that she is here for her. Cancer will not stop for COVID-19. Karlee was meant to be in ‘peak cancer period’ in April, but her appointments were cancelled. It’s a sense of relief as she was thinking about how she could get to the various hospitals safely. The peak period will have to wait until June and August. In this instance, Covid-19 puts cancer on hold. The ladies discuss the ‘new normal’ and how excited they are that Angie has a new job lined up! There is always a silver lining. Even when you have to dig a bit deeper to find it!
