I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of Breast Cancer at the age of 33, which completely stopped me in my tracks and meant several surgeries and 18 rounds of grueling chemotherapy.
I was determined to find someone who could help me remain as active as possible whilst going through treatment and post treatment. Before I contacted Jules I called another consultant who was promoting rehabilitation for people who had gone through cancer treatment. When I told them I wanted to be as active as possible whilst going through treatment they practically laughed at me and told me to call back when I had finished treatment.
As soon as I spoke to Jules I knew immediately that she actually cared and I instantly felt completely comfortable with her. On my first visit Jules took the time to go through the effects of chemo with me. She didn’t focus on what I wouldn’t be able to do but what I could do. My weekly visits with Jules became a highlight for me. I received helpful advice on coping with the everyday things we take for granted when we are well. I also met new people who were also going through tough times and this really helped to keep me in check.
Jules played an enormous part in helping me restore not my fitness and strength as well as my mental wellness during and after treatment and surgeries. Thank you Jules you are just a beautiful person.
