🎙️ "Cancer. Heart Disease. Health. Well-being. And the unexpected medicine of laughter." Life can change in a heartbeat — a diagnosis, a heart attack, a moment that stops you in your tracks. We’ve been there, and now we’re talking about it. From treatment and support to family, friends, mental health, and the resources that get you through — we’re sharing it all. But it’s not just about illness; it’s about life. News, sports, hobbies, crafts, and the little distractions that keep us sane. Along the way, special guests bring fresh voices, real stories, and new perspectives. Light-hearted. Funny. Honest. Addictive. This isn’t just another podcast — it’s a community. Tune in, laugh with us, learn with us, and remember… all we ask is just a little smile.

Oh what a life

Oh what a life

Last week's Podcast (The Drug Dealer) received the most comments to date and it wasn't about the title, the feedback about the medication and its side effects were amazing and we will be looking at Patrick's drugs and side effects in a future episode.

Today we are pleased to commence our Summer guest list with our first guest, Louise Steggall.

Louise has had the most incredible life experiences when it comes to Cancer both as a Nurse and patient, and tells her story uniquely.

After both her Mother and Father battled with Cancer and finally succumbed she discovers she has a new fight on her hands as she receives a diagnosis of Breast Cancer.

Louise is also a Healthcare Professional and in her time has worked and helped many with Cancer nursing them through diagnosis to end-of-life care. She tells all about the highs and the lows, the mixed emotions, and how she deals with this daily whilst looking after her family and children.

An honest and frank account of someone who truly has been through it all and believes in a Positive Mental Attitude (PMA) is key to helping us cope and survive reminding us that PMA is FREE.

Louise has been and still is involved with Dementia following her mother's diagnosis and she tells us about the Dementia help group she has recently formed locally and runs with great success.

Next week our guest is World Champion Snooker legend Cliff Thorburn.
