Jude has another big battle to face on Tuesday. Another major surgery to go through. It will be assurance that cancer can’t form there but physically it will be tough,This will likely be Jude’s last @belfastgiants game this season so please give her a high 5 or hug ❤️😃 #TeamJude

After meeting the surgeon today they have decided it’s time to move on to surgery for Jude - Her body has been battered with chemo and how she has managed 4 sessions is beyond me - Surgery presents a new challenge but chemo has done it’s job and options and outlook are good ❤️
