Hi guys just catching up on all your messages of support and well wishes. Thank you so so much
I can say with a sense of relief but also some nervousness that I will no longer be having any more chemo. My oncologist 100% agreed that at this stage it is completely taking away my quality of life. I have a really nasty throat and mouth infection and he wanted to admit me for a few days to monitor me and put me on IV antibiotics but I don’t live far from the hospital so he agreed I could come home but if I deteriorate I have to call an ambulance.
My care plan going forward is to continue the weekly infusions of a targeted treatment I have been getting and also anti hormone injections and some more radiotherapy when I get my strength back. Obviously stopping chemo means that my life is going to be shortened but that’s ok because I’ve had no life since last August since I started chemo.
It’s been a very emotional and long day for myself and my family but I have a sense of peace so I know I’ve made the right decision.
Im not one bit surprised that Shannen is still silent and like some of you have said my guess is she will be for a few days and then we will have to endure the self pity and tantrums.
Anyway she is on a slippery slope and only has herself to blame.
Again thanks from the bottom of my heart for every word of support and care……it honestly means so much to me

Just an update on my health guys. Firstly every message of support and genuine care means the world to me.
I met with my oncology team and I have stopped all treatment. It’s a relief and I’m 100% at peace with my decision. I will now just get palliative care and I have such an amazing support network who will listen to me and respect my wishes. I feel free and I have an inner strength I never knew I had.
I will keep you updated on my journey and I want to say you are one hell of an amazing group of women who have supported and shown me so much love and care.
I’m emotional but I’m at peace now. I don’t know how much time I have left but I’m going to tear the arse out of every single minute and live my life out with a smile on my face and peace in my heart.
Thanks to all of you for being amazing tattle bitches!! Love ya all.

Hey chicks……haven’t been on here for a while and still have to catch up on what our Scammen is up to but quite honestly……I couldn’t give a flying fuck lol

Today I got told by my oncologist that I am officially in partial remission
My latest scan shows that yet again my lung tumours have shrunk and the tumour in my sternum hasn’t changed. Also there is no sign of any cancer cells in my lymph nodes or anywhere else in my body……to say I am grateful is an understatement
Even my oncologist is flabbergasted!!!
I have been feeling well but there is always the worry that something is going on.
I need a right knee replacement for a couple of years and I am now well enough to have it done asap!!! There will be no stopping me!!!!
Hope you are all well and I wanted to share my amazing news with my Tattle bitches lol!
Love and hugs to you all. B xxxx

Awww girls got my scan results earlier and all the candles…good wishes and love have so much power. My oncologist said only 1 of the tumours in my lung has slightly increased in size and the rest of my tumours are the same size and the cancer hasn’t spread since my last scan . I am just so overwhelmed and still in a daze. Us women are made of tough stuff.
Starting back into treatment next week but it will be easier now that I know it’s keeping the cancer at bay for now……honestly better than winning the lotto!!!
Love and hugs to you all

Hi haven’t been on for a while and it’s lovely to see some of you asking after me .
I’m not doing too good. A lot going on and my pain and fatigue has been quite bad. Had my PET scan last week and I’m getting the results Thursday morning so trying to be positive but I’m not too optimistic. But it’s what it is.
I have a few nice things to look forward to including a big tick off my bucket list!! Top of my list was to see Dermot Kennedy live and I couldn’t get tickets but a local womens Facebook group went above and beyond and one of the amazing girls gave me 2 of her tickets to see him in St Anne’s park in June!!! I don’t care if I have to go in a wheelchair I will be there singing on the top of my voice to every song!! Honestly there are so many kind genuinely amazing people out there despite all the disgusting GFM news today. I can’t get my head around how despicable some people are. I have to step back from it as it makes me so upset and angry and that’s not going to do me any good.
I’m trying to catch up on the latest Shannen shitshow. Haven’t been on social media much but I’m sure it will keep me busy!!
Thanks so much again for all the kind thoughts……it means more than you know.

Hey bitches!!………well I got some truly amazing news today!!
My blood markers are showing that my cancer is dormant at the moment!!
The cancer is still there but it’s having a very welcome sleep lol
I’m still trying to process the news but it’s the best Christmas pressie ever!!
My beautiful son said ‘Mom it’s a Christmas miracle’ and it hit me then.
Thank you to each and every one of you beautiful women who have shown me so much love and support. I’m so emotional and so fucking grateful.
Now I’m going to open a bottle of vino and slowly let the miraculous news set in.
Love…hugs…kisses and most of all thanks to all of you for your support and care.
FUCK CANCER bitches!!

I think fellow Tattlers I’ll say my piece and then I’ll leave it at that.
I donated to Shannens GFM because she was a young girl going through Transplant the same as me. I’ve been around the cancer block for many years and been friends with many transplant patients not here to tell their tale anymore.
Briefly my transplant process was horrendous my husband had to work there was a mortgage to be paid so I spent a lot of time on my own both in hospital and the apartment. When I did get home even though I had to travel to Dublin 3 times a week as I was still technically employed I was turned down for Free Travel. I ran up huge debt in a year related to travel and hotel costs when I was too ill to come home.

When I read about Shannens story my thoughts went to my debts and also what treatment would be available if she relapsed again. My thought process was make things a little easier for this family. I actually had no issue with her purchasing a car I vividly remember my husband’s heap of crap breaking down on the Motorway as he was driving to James when I got bad news so a car would be a great help to her.

My issue with Shannen initially started one day when I was watching her stories she was trying to flog vitiams, now to patients who are on treatment or immunosuppressive medication these things can be toxic. I then read her update on GFM that she was going to pay the excess funds forward and change some life’s and I thought that’s amazing some people who couldn’t possibly raise funds will get a little bit of help. A bit of help to keep the heating on longer or pay the orthodontist bill that’s not getting paid because mum/dad now has cancer.

The the barrage of lies started, the constant calling TROLL, the blocking of anyone who asked a question and of course the treatment of our Missy Brenda, a lady with style and grace. As a transplant survivor myself I have the deepest of empathy for what Shannen has gone through.
She is so lucky to have survived we both are. However hand on my heart is someone had offered me 1000 euro from their GFM to cover a months trains when I needed it I would have kissed their feet.

So from my perspective the money is gone and Her half hearted apology to Brenda is the only one she will ever get. We will never no the truth, she can’t remember her own lies. I wish her the very best of luck and good health going forward, she’s going to need it Ireland is a small country and it’s people have long memories.

@Missymeister are you hungover

@TikToc I wasn’t!! Just drunken high

Coldplay stole my voice and my heart!! It was without doubt the best concert I’ve ever been at. The beautiful Claire minded me and made sure I was ok every minute. Some people say Tattle is a toxic place but I got to tick off the top of my bucket list thanks to Tattle and the beautiful Claire and we raised a glass to Shannens good health!!
My heart is so full of joy……I sang my heart out for 2.5 hours and walked the feet off myself but it was worth every second. I am still on a high and the tears streamed down my face in buckets. Honestly girls I have no more words. B xx

I didn’t think she could be anymore disgusting but she has blatantly lied in her little rant this morning regarding my messages to her. But I’m not going to go and rehash it all……I and thankfully so many of you on here and now amazing people from the Facebook posts, know that she is lying yet agsin. Lying and defaming my name. Now if I was pedantic I could use the term ‘troll’ regarding her actions towards me but I’m gone past that at this stage.
This is now taking a toll on my health. I didn’t sleep most of last night and I could hardly eat yesterday so for now I need to step back and practice self care and not let this affect me anymore.
But I know this is not going away and for that I am so bloody grateful and proud. I am now a face behind the story and that’s ok. I chose to do that yesterday and I have zero regrets. Karma is working its magic and I’m a firm believer in karma.
Thanks for all the endless support and love girls. From the bottom of my heart it means more than you’ll ever know.

Lads I'm concerned that Shannen has to come off instagram and will lose her 'income' so im going to set up a Go Fund Me for her ...... who's in?!

too soon?

Can I help too……please……pick me!!!

I also agree that Ciaran Byrne’s apology comes across as very genuine and sincere and I admire him greatly for addressing the GFM.
As for that hissy fit I watched from her nibs……it was inevitable and I honestly think this is the beginning of the end for her
I am so so grateful to everyone who has had my back. I have a very tough day ahead of me tmro. I have a meeting with my oncologist and I am requesting that all my chemo be stopped with immediate affect………I have been so sick over the past 6 months and my body and mind can’t take anymore. I haven’t been able to get out of bed since Saturday and my mental health is suffering and I can’t exist like this. I hate being morbid and negative but I have been so blown away by all the support from you dolls on here I just wanted to let you know. And as long as I can type a message on here I won’t be going anywhere!!!!

Ladies I been meaning to write here for a while now but I didn't. It sickness me and upsets me big c and me represents people like me.
She supposed to be a cancer ambassador but she's more like a blogger ambassador now.
I am 34 and had acute leukemia in 2016...i had a bone marrow transplant Oct 2016 and relapsed after 18 months I had another bone marrow transplant last march 2019 also two lung operations due to fungus on my lungs and was n a coma for 3 weeks, now a year and half later I am still struggling with graft v host on my liver and attend hosp 3 days a week. My problem is this..... Eveyone undergoing bone marrow and lives in distant city's from James are given an apartment in Kilmainham 5 min away from hospital with covid she would not be allowed bring anyone with her in, so means Barry and her daughter can't visit, that money is a disgrace should be given to bone marrow research or the ward, I have two kids myself and I know the struggle it put on my family when I spent 10.months in James last year, but we def didn't need hundreds of thousands, the baby grows I found that strange as she came off Instagram then a day later got more followers and then announced her diagnosis again. Now she is saying her donor didn't pass medical also before transplant she should be in for induction treatment for her bone marrow to be empty before new cells, so she says 6 weeks so what are the chances she doesn't need transplant after all who knows....
Also I made her a lovely frame last year and sent her a card and a lovely chain to her door in the ward as I was there at the time too and the nurses wanted me to go into her and she said she wasnt up for visitors but flat out on Instagram my 8 year old made her a lovely video she sees all. Messages and never replys I didn't even get a message to say thank u... was 3 days after she was on the late late I felt so sorry for her but now I'm angerd becuse someone that should represent us cancer patients it just seems like it's all a joke.
Sorry for the essay but I needed to say how i felt I really hope we are all so wrong but I been to death door and back I have had all infections possible and I know how bad I been after chemo and I know how bad other girls have been and they also get same treatment from big c she seems to only respond back to people that have a blue tick on their page I am angered at it all and to me it doesn't make sense. I had over 100 chemo therapys to get my marrow empty for transplant i also had an unknown donor too so did the other girls i can say I go to James every 2 weeks and never seen her there, but I also attend my own hospital here 3 days a week and I know people that are seriously struggling just don't get it also for transplant in Ireland funds are been approved on compasionate grounds especially if ur a young girl, and a mother a transplant is 350 k..... Alone so she doesn't have to pay for it she would also be entitled to a medical card because of no income, and a long term illness, also she said no one will insure her for a mortgage in that case no one should insure her to drive either..... I know a lot people that had cancer and got a mortgage.

I had a very interesting conversation last night with someone who is 100% reliable.
Shannen was not going on 96fm to announce some big deal with Penneys or even my local butchers, she was going to talk the same bullshit about trolling and her lies about nasty things being said here referring to her. About an hour before she was due to go on the radio she messaged them to say that the trolling was going on all the previous night and she wasn’t doing the interview. 96fm have apparently decided they will not be interviewing her in 2 weeks or 2 years…… they are disgusted by her behaviour.
So poor SpongeBob was drained from all her messaging on here Sunday night and her outpouring of concern for me that I’m wasting my time………it’s honestly laughable at this stage. She is digging a bigger hole for herself every single day

Girls I’m going to give this one last push while I’m well enough.
I’ve been in touch with Opinions Matter and Niall Boylans podcasts. I think if any of you could do the same it would really make a difference. I just messaged both podcasts and briefly gave them the details. My identity has been public since yesterday so at this stage I want to give Karma a helping hand!

I listened to the podcast today (should have not done that) and she completely spewed more lies about me.

Cmon my Tattle Queens let’s try and get as much momentum behind this as possible

Good afternoon,

Just jumping onto this thread as the Owner of the original Snug Candles - www.snugcandles.co.uk

NOT to be confused with Snug by Shannen Joyce!

My business has been operating since September 2020, it's only a small, family business running from my home and kitchen here in Kent, UK. I produce small batches of high quality scented 100% soy wax candles.

I've seen a jump in traffic to my website this morning and following some investigation, most clicks came from this website which I'd never heard of and I've never heard of Shannen Joyce! I'll be keeping an eye on the growth of these candles with interest!

I only sell to UK customers but have a loyal following of return customers. Thanks to those of you that took a look at my site and some messages I received via my Insta page x

Straight up Suzy said:

meet Mary I have got a response from Ciaran byrne in relation to the go fund me he set up .He stated that he no longer has anything to do with the go fund me for a long time now Shannon has total control I will attach the email he said to share it to clarify his involvement was brief

Click to expand...

Great response from Ciaran IMO. Explains his intentions and I think he is right, no more can be asked of him - see Shannen when people are honest and transparent and don't lie things can be easily CLEARED and no further questions needed.

Fair play to you getting the response.

Over to you now Shannen.

Firstly @Spongebob as a few others have eluded to its very hard to believe you are genuine. If you are then my apologies in advance.
Secondly I don’t want or need to be told by anyone how I should live out whatever time I have left……and I think it’s an insult to me to say I’m wasting my time. I think a lot of decent people on here would agree it shows I have a good moral compass and integrity despite my daily battle with cancer. Shannon on the other hand hasn’t an ounce of integrity and yes she fought cancer and i empathise with how sick she was at such a young age but she lied about me. She inflated our message exchange and she was behind a so call Tea Spill call out page that not only accused me of being Teaspill but also threatened me……while I was going through invasive chemo and treatment. Teaspill has all the proof it was Shannen.
I rarely use unsavoury language on here but do me a favour now and piss off with your concern for my health and it actually reminds me of what Shannen originally said to me about her feeling sorry for me that I’m dying from cancer but I’m spending what time I have questioning her………don’t come on here and mention my name again please. I’m a very well educated woman with a big heart and a very passionate fire in my belly to expose a scammer and outright liar.
And yes to another poster asking I most certainly do have a bucket list and as someone else mentioned the next thing on it is to see Coldplay in Glasgow……but if it doesn’t happen I’ll draw a line through it and move on to the next thing on my list.
I hate false and disingenuous people and I wholeheartedly agree that @Spongebob you are one

Hey bitches!!! Have no clue what’s going on with Ms Scammer but saw a pic of her and she clearly needs to ease up on the lip fillers!!! The absolute state of her

Anyhow I get scanned every 4 months and for exactly 1 year my tumours gave not grown or the cancer has not spread. And my blood markers are normal!! Still can’t get my head around it!!
Even my oncologist Prof Hennessy (I have respect and don’t refer to him by his first name) is just amazed!!
Whop whoop!!!
Grateful beyond words girls.
Love & hugs to you all
B xx

Liz has been in touch with me and has been so kind to me since the fake Tea Spill call out page accused both of us of being Tea Spill.
Liz is genuinely shocked at me bring trolled by the call out Tea Spill page. Tea Spill has proof it was Shannen behind it.

All I want and have wanted from the get go is for Shannen to be called out for scamming honest people. End of. And obviously the fact I have terminal cancer makes me more passionate about it. Joy who is Liz’s partner is a cancer survivor so I am delighted to have the support and genuine care from Liz.
Shannen will pee in her pants if Liz confronts her. And after that despicable podcast and the lies about me from Shannen I am happy to have Liz along with all of you in my corner and finally get Shannen to address the crux of this whole shitshow………where is the GFM money………simple as. I didn’t want or need this stress in my life but I am honest and have been from the start. I am not a troll. I am a woman who asked a very simple question and in turn I got vile messages and I’m being labelled as a liar and a troll. I’m the polar opposite and I know you all know that.
I will continue to fight cancer and fight being labelled a troll. I’m a tough cookie and I didn’t have a vindictive bone in my body

@winterblu hey there it’s ‘your one’ Missy here
All I’ll say to you is have a look back at what ‘actually’ happened and the messages Shannen and her troll account sent me. Your opinion of me is none of my business but maybe get your facts right before mentioning me on here please

And yes @TikToc i am like a new woman!!! And embracing my new post chemo curls!!
I had a complete hair makeover yesterday and it was truly amazing . First time setting foot inside a hair salon since chemo and it was badly needed!!!
Next tick on my bucket list is going to NY next month to see my oldest dearest friend
Just cannot wait……feeling good a the moment so fingers crossed that stays the same
