All of our plans ruined... by cancer.
Malin & Tom

We have been making big vanlife plans for our dream campervan project, but we have recently been given some news which has turned our lives upside down. Malin has cancer. They found an aggressive tumour in Malin's lower intestine that turned out to be colorectal cancer. It's quite uncommon to be a young girl with colorectal cancer, but here we are.

Malin has finished a full round of radiation therapy (radiotherapy) and one round of chemotherapy. We start the next round of chemo tomorrow, and we're feeling confident now that we know what's around the corner. It's not easy to be a young girl with cancer, but we're trying to stay positive.

Chemotherapy is not easy, it's extremely tough on the body, so every round of chemo crossed off the list is a big win. Anything that will help us fight this aggressive tumour is a win, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery. We’ve been following other channels going through cancer battles such as Eamon & Bec, and TiffanyThinks, and hopefully we can be as strong as they have been. Just like Malin, they are also young with cancer.

Follow along with our colorectal cancer story.

Who are we?
——————
We are a young 'Swenglish' adventure family, that consists of Swedish Malin, English Tom, and babies Charlie & Isabella, who are half and half. We love all kinds of adventures, including travelling around Sweden and beyond in our little budget family campervan, and we're currently building our dream campervan project.

But right now we’re focused on one thing: to be free of cancer. We've been on the journey to recover since Malin received her colorectal cancer diagnosis in late 2022.
