Nancy Clarke is 46. She had breast cancer 5 years ago and when her hair grew back after chemotherapy it was grey. Apart from this she is very fit and works in the florist. Nancy’s husband left her during her treatment as he could not cope with the stress. Her son works in London and visits her monthly. Nancy’s sister Steph moved in with Nancy to 14 Doolittle Crescent  4 years ago when they turned the house into 2 flats. Steph occupies the ground floor whilst Nancy lives on the first floor. This arrangement suits them both.
