Women's health campaigner Vicky Phelan has said her cancer is growing again, but slowly.

On Twitter, Ms Phelan said that she was sharing the news having had time to absorb the information herself and for her family and friends to absorb it too.

In a series of tweets yesterday, Ms Phelan explained that in addition to growth in three tumours, she has developed a new "tiny - 3mm" in her lung. Ms Phelan said she is "actively researching options at the moment, and, apart from bouts of extreme tiredness at times, I am very lucky to report no other symptoms at the moment".

PhelanVicky A truly inspirational woman. Thoughts and prayers with you as always.

This woman is a powerhouse.

So sad, & the dignity & strength Vicky shows in dealing with this terrible prognosis is amazing. Shame on our system & leaders for making these brave women have to fight the system as well as the disease. Thinking of Vicky & her family at this tough time

Must be the slowest growing in the world with her.

Absolutely heartbreaking, & while Vicky's condition worsens one of the men responsible for trying to silence her & cover up the Department of Healths failures to the women of Ireland Simon Harris is being rewarded by tcddublin Disgraceful behaviour. NeverForget cervicalcheck

PhelanVicky is such a brave advocate. Woman can only hope that DonnellyStephen will now listen to the needs of woman impacted by the cervical check scandal and implement a tribunal that is fit for purpose.
