'Stay strong, hun...' Why Imogen feels let down by social media and schools.

from After awareness, then what? #CancerCanDoOne. · host LouthRunForLife

Feeling bullied. And her anxiety attacks were often not recognised at school. She felt punished for feeling the way she did. Not all teachers reacted this way; she did get some support. But looking back now, she feels it’s the education training system that doesn't give teachers the skills they need to recognise these situations. Fast forward and it’s now social media that can be a best friend one day, and then… This is part two of Imogen’s story. She was eight years old when she was told her mum had leukaemia. It’s a situation that not only affects the patient but the whole family network. Now 17, Imogen feels the experience will shape how she views the future, her career and lifestyle choices. She’s already campaigning for cancer awareness, but this is only the start…     #cancercandoone #louthrunforlife #cancerawareness #cancerhelpforchildren #childcancer #parentcancer #cancerresearchuk #cancerwarrior #cancersurvivor #leaukaemiasurvivor    Music: #Uppbeat : License code: OV4JXO0USXKVGKIK
