Julia

When you dealing with Cancer it takes a lot of courage on her part.

As far as I know she does not have cancer?

Julia has leukemia.

 

[miss molly]

Yes she does look tired IMHO. I wish her well getting better but she has always been vain..

Julia actually refers to the cancer in her blog this week.

Chronic myeloid leukaemia, which is what she has, is a blood cancer, and she's been on chemotherapy tablets for quite some time. I think in a blog a while ago she did say that this has been going really well, but inevitably with any cancer treatment, there are side-effects, so it's never going to be plain sailing.

For her age, and given her more recent CML illness, and her recovery from polio, Julia still looks exceptionally good. The one thing which is clearly defeating her, despite her regular pilates, is the tummy area. If I was her age with her fabulously unlined skin, I'd be more than happy. It's not going to happen as I did OK but not brilliantly in the good skin lottery.

According to this blog last month the CML is no longer detectable, she has to stay on medication for at least another two years but she has had a great response to her treatment!

I like Julia and I think she looks great for her age. Thank goodness she has now moved up a size to a medium because she looks so much better when things fit her, rather than squashing herself into a size small and quite frankly just looking fat. There's nothing wrong with being in your 50's and not being a size small anymore - and I tell myself that 10 times a day before I go out the door :mysmilie_14:

No does nothing for her at all. As for Ingrid words fail me.

I don't think they're YK are they? Kim & Co maybe?

I'm watching the latest show with Catherine Huntley. She put n a flounced zip cardi over what she was already wearing - transformed just about passable to ludicrous in one easy step!

The psychology of how to convince people to buy unflattering clothing by the shed load..

It hasn't worked on me. I'm convinced I would never want to look like IT or Julia. I've never seen Julia looking so silly.

Julia has leukemia.

Isn't leukemia cancer of the blood?

 

[loveheart]

Isn't leukemia cancer of the blood?

Yes it is. I was replying to a post asking if Julia had cancer.

 

[Brissles]

Yes. Like most other illnesses it has varying degrees of seriousness.

 

[lynnonthelake]

Anyhow I still haven't found the watch.:mysmilie_1:

I know it can be said that most places of work have their fare share of illnesses and staff with chronic conditions, but Q with its presenters / models being ill or passing away over the last couple of years appear to have a larger than most ratio. Chloe with vertigo, Jill F with her debilitating spondeolosis, the sad loss of Ameka and Beulah, Ali K having breast cancer, Julia with her current issues, and who knows which members of the rest of the team are having to deal with medical problems on a daily basis. I know we all have a pop at them for their irritating habits or dire dress sense, but it must take super human effort to smile and carry on when their bodies are screaming at them to lie down and rest !
