Cancer drug trial saved my life, says mum-of-four

56-year-old is in remission thanks to experimental treatment
A MUM diagnosed with cancer as she was about to jet off on a family holiday is now in complete remission thanks to a new experimental drug.
Michelle Gidion, 56, from Kerridge, was given the news she had acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) via phone at the airport as she awaited a flight to France in 2023.
It is an aggressive blood cancer and the haematologist advised her not to board the plane as her platelets were so low she could potentially bleed to death if she had an accidental injury.
But Michelle is now cancer-free after signing up to take part in an international clinical trial of a drug called bleximenib.
She said: "I've been super active all my life. We are just a very outdoorsy family, so this diagnosis really turned our lives upside down.
"The trial feels like there's light at the end of a very long dark tunnel.
