Woman struck twice by tonsil cancer celebrates as tumour shrinks in half
A woman struck twice by tonsil cancer is celebrating after seeing her tumour shrink in half.
Jeanette Joyce, 64, from Northwich in Cheshire, was diagnosed with cancer in her right tonsil and soft palate (roof of the mouth) during the pandemic in May 2021.
She endured 33 doses of radiotherapy and two cycles of chemotherapy and was eventually given the all-clear in the July.
But, devastatingly, just three days after a 12-month check-up to ensure all was well, she was diagnosed with a completely unrelated second tumour in her left tonsil.
