00:08I'm feeling okay considering I've had eight chemos I thought I'd feel a lot worse at this
00:12point a little bit tired a little bit out of breath and from time to time you get a
00:15bit of a weird side effect but they go they go pretty quickly and I'm just trying to just crack
00:20on really you know it has been amazing like the response just from the TV industry as a whole
00:29has been just so generous and Eamon came to see me the other day he was sort of staying away
00:33because
00:34he thought I was a vulnerable person you know which I am but you know you need to see your
00:38friends from time to time did a lovely dog walk with Charlotte Judy popped in to see me on her
00:42way
00:42back up to Scotland and we had a lovely little breakfast socially distance and and played with
00:47the dogs and Dermot O'Leary bless him we're not even actually friends but he sends me messages all the
00:53time to see how I am so I feel like we're friends now Dermot afterwards we're definitely going to be
00:57friends because it meant so much to me that you sent all of those lovely messages but people as
01:02a whole on you know social media have been incredibly supportive when I feel low and down a bit teary
01:07you
01:08know I can get those messages up and have a look at them and it really does give me a
01:12lift and it means
01:13the world to me God my family have been amazing I don't think I've been that easy to live with
01:21at
01:21times I think chemo makes you quite crotchety it makes you a bit tired it literally takes two days out
01:26of
01:26your week where you're not you're not feeling great and um they've obviously tried to lift me
01:30up when I'm down they've done all the cooking you haven't really lifted a finger since chemo started
01:35they've done all of the cooking they've fed me they've comforted me um they've done they've done
01:40everything done the shopping I haven't done any shopping either since chemo started because I'm
01:44trying to keep away from places with lots of different people not my family bubble um so yeah I just
01:50massive massive thanks to them for their love and their support and I know I've always got that
01:55really but I shouldn't take it for granted I don't I was so surprised and shocked at that
02:06because um Amelia actually doesn't have an official job yet she's graduated she's done her postgrad so
02:12she's not actually earning that much money um she's a runner at Sky and she does a bit of news
02:16reading at the local radio station so she's not like loaded and she bought me this amazing red dress
02:21and from Cameron Millen which was pretty pricey but the reason she did it was because I was feeling
02:27a bit panicky about what to wear to work on Sky because I've got um a port fitted here which
02:32is
02:32really ugly um but it's how they they put the chemo into me and I just wanted to make sure
02:37that all my
02:38clothes hid that I didn't have many clothes that did so um I was quickly rushing around trying to get
02:43some stuff that hid it and this dress was just perfect and I love it it's my favorite thing
