Erstwhile classical Circus artiste, now championing children with cancer.

Former classical Circus artiste and Ring Mistress, published author and poet, jobbing artist and serial mum, my career, lifestyle, culture and support network, all left town in a colourful convoy of painted wagons without us, the morning following my son's leukaemia diagnosis. Now, 14 years later and accidentally settled, I co-run a support group for parents of children with cancer, while growing vegetables, chickens, and arthritis in north east Scotland.
