Summary
Kiera Tonks, just 20 when diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukaemia, says her life changed after months of terrifying nightmares and dismissed symptoms—until doctors found her white blood cell count sky-high. Working three jobs while studying, she’d brushed off fatigue and bruising, but those eerie dreams finally pushed her to the ER. Now on a daily pill, she’s thriving—with a Deadpool attitude and a mission to warn young people: don’t ignore your body. She’s rallying others who faced delayed diagnoses and championing Jess’s Rule, urging doctors to reconsider cancer in youth. Grateful for support from groups like the Teenage Cancer Trust, Kiera’s message is simple: listen to your body, no matter your age.
