Overview
- Callard has met her new oncology team in Ireland and clinicians say radiotherapy will begin soon after her records arrived from England.
- The start of her treatment was delayed by the move to Ireland and the time needed to transfer medical files between health systems.
- Her husband, Jon McEwan, posted a home video saying they had ‘got some news’ from a hospital visit and described the day as a down one.
- The couple hosted friends at home to cope, with Callard sharing lighthearted posts about drinking sangria and writing ‘F*** cancer!’ on social media, which drew wide fan support.
- Callard first made the diagnosis public in February when she said she learned it just before going on set for Fair City, and her upcoming radiotherapy schedule could affect her work and daily routine in the near term.
