Gold Ribbon Conversations - The podcast that supports those fighting Childhood Cancer.


I’m joined by Juliet D'Alton to talk about her son Jacob and his diagnosis of LCH - Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis at just 3 months old. 


Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis is a rare myeloid neoplasm and is treated with chemotherapy by the team at St Johns Ward Crumlin. 


We talk about the long and anxious road to diagnosis for something so rare.

A parents instinct when turned away with another cream to try.

The impact on their mental health as parents.

And why it’s so important to accept help.
