I was medically gaslit for 8 months… and it nearly cost me my life 👀🩺 I was dismissed with antibiotics, told I was dramatic, and refused scans, while a 12cm tumour was crushing my lungs and heart. By the time anyone listened, it was stage 4 cancer. Eight months of chemo later, I’m still here. But it never should have got that far 💉🧬 This is your reminder to fight for answers. If they won’t give you a test, ask them to write it in your notes.

🏴 Did you know you can fall asleep in London… and wake up in the Scottish Highlands? 🚆✨ ad | This is part one of our week-long Scottish adventure with @Cal Sleeper and @CalMac and it’s already off to an unreal start!! We took the Caledonian Sleeper to Inverness and it felt like a moving boutique hotel. Private bunk beds, your own bathroom, fluffy towels, and even a guest lounge at Euston Station before boarding 🛌 Dinner in the restaurant carriage, breakfast in bed, and waking up to views like this? Unreal 🌳 The sleep was honestly so good we didn’t even need earplugs, and waking up to the Highlands rolling past the window felt like a dream. We booked the Club Room with Caledonian Sleeper and it made the whole experience feel extra special 🫶🏼 If you’re planning a UK trip or heading north to explore Scotland, this is one of the most unique ways to travel.

🧬We can both have biological children… but we’re still doing IVF 💉 Charlie and his mum are the only two people in the UK ever recorded with his rare genetic heart condition. It caused a cardiac arrest when he was 15, and any child we have has a 50% chance of inheriting it 💔 So we’re doing IVF with PGT-M, genetic testing that checks our embryos before implantation. It’s 99.99% accurate and gives us peace of mind we’d never have naturally 💊 Even after stage 4 cancer and chemo, I preserved my fertility well. And we’ve spent the last 6 months focusing on real health, no alcohol, whole foods, being active and getting outside ☀️🥗 But I’ll be honest… I never gave up coffee completely. Cutting back? Yes. Quitting entirely? Not a chance☕😂 This journey isn’t about fertility. It’s about breaking the cycle, and giving our future kids the best shot at life.

We’re sorry… we just hate new builds 👀 Lovely if you like them, but we didn’t want to buy one 🙃 Yes, technically our house is a new build… but we designed it ourselves and built it very differently 🧱✨ And for some reason, we also own a 100m driveway, so while we wait for the next stage of the build (and pause travel for IVF), we’re trying to make it actually look nice.

TWO YEARS AGO we got pulled on stage with COLDPLAY 🤯🎤 Still can’t believe this happened in front of 60,000 people, all because we made a sign with some Hobbycraft paper and a permanent marker 😂 We waited in the queue, held it up with no expectations, and after ignoring us for what felt like ages, Chris Martin suddenly waved us on stage. Just like that. In front of 60,000 people 🫣 We have no idea how it happened. Maybe someone from the show spotted us earlier. But it felt like the universe saying, go on then! 👀 And for everyone asking, Charlie was five pints deep, Chris Martin smelled incredible and we actually had Charlie Brown as our wedding exit song 💍🎶 But what meant even more… is that afterwards, over 500 of you signed up to give blood and register as bone marrow donors. Blood saves lives, not just for cancer patients like me, but for anyone going through treatment, surgeries or life-threatening illness ❤️ So here’s your Sunday reminder: 🩸 Sign up to give blood if you can (NHS Give Blood in the UK) 🧬 Register as a stem cell donor (@Anthony Nolan in the UK is amazing) Because one day, it really could be your donation that saves someone’s life! 🤍 Follow for more real stories, chaos and moments we’ll never forget ✨ #coldplaylive #bucketlistmoment #coldplaycardiff #concerttok #givebloodnhs #blooddonationawareness #lifesavingdonor #realmoments #concertvibes #bonemarrowdonor #cancerawareness #charliemoment #musicmemories #thattravelcouple #concertsurprise #bucketlistexperience #stage4survivor #fyp
Did you know 1 in 7 couples struggle to conceive… and the UK’s birth rate is at a record low? 🫠 We’re not technically one of them, but next month we start IVF for a totally different reason 🧬 I survived a cardiac arrest at 15 and I live with a rare heart gene (RYR2) and a defibrillator in my chest. Hannah beat stage four cancer at 22 and somehow still puts up with my plot twists daily 😂 Now nearly a decade together, 50 countries later and building a house from scratch… we’re about to add hormone injections and genetic testing to the list!! 💊 We’re doing PGT-M IVF to test our embryos and stop my rare heart condition being passed on ❤️🩹 Stick around for the chaos, we’re sharing every real IVF moment, house build milestone and travel adventure along the way 🌍✨ Drop a comment if you’re curious about IVF, genetic testing or just want to follow our story 🫶🏼 #ivfjourney #pgtmivf #genetictesting #fertilityjourney #ivftiktok #cancersurvivor #cardiacarrestsurvivor #ivfcommunity #realivf #ivfuk #fertilityawareness #ivfhope #ivfstruggles #ttccommunity #ukivf #ivfsupport #thattravelcouple #travelcouple #realrelationships
🧬 We’ve been on the NHS IVF waiting list for over two years… and today, a GP told me “What’s the rush? You’re only 27” 🤯👀🙃 Charlie and his mum are the only two people in the UK with a rare genetic heart condition. It caused his cardiac arrest at 15. I had stage 4 cancer at 22 💔 We can physically have children, but every child would have a 50% chance of inheriting the gene that nearly k*lled him… So we’re doing IVF with PGT-M, a type of genetic testing that screens the embryos before implantation. It’s still IVF. Still emotional. Still physically brutal 🧪 I was at the GP for a thyroid recheck and they refused to retest for 3 more months… then told me again, “I don’t understand why you’re doing IVF if you’re both clinically fine” 💬 Charlie has a defibrillator in his chest. I’ve had chemotherapy, immunotherapy and a clinical trial. And we’ve waited two years already ⏳ We’re not rushing. We’re doing everything we can to protect our future children.

Would you believe this is Scotland? Because we didn’t 🏴☀️ ad | We went from London to white sand beaches, turquoise water and Highland cows, here’s exactly how 🚐 Started with the @Cal Sleeper to Inverness, waking up in the Highlands was such a bucket list experience. Picked up our camper, stopped at Loch Ness, chased waterfalls at Rogie Falls and drove west to Ullapool. Then we took the @CalMac to the Isle of Lewis. Smooth check-in, great food and ferry coffees with unreal views ☕🌊 We road tripped through the islands, stopped at Uig Beach and wild camped at Hushinish. The beaches looked like the Caribbean and it was so peaceful. Wrapped it up with one last ferry and a cappuccino before heading to our final island… one of the most iconic places in Scotland 👀 Save this for your next Scotland trip. Trains, ferries, vanlife and hidden beaches you won’t believe are in the UK 🫶🏼 #caledoniansleeper #calmacferries #scotlandroadtrip #isleoflewis #isleofharris #outerhebrides #scottishislands #bucketlistadventures #thingstodoinscotland #vanlifescotland #traveluk #thattravelcouple #wildcampingscotland #ukgetaways #scotlanditinerary #coastalviews #trainandferrytravel #ukbucketlist #explorescotland #travelcouple
