A Liverpool-based restaurant owner has found solace in charity work after being diagnosed with incurable cancer.
Elaine Kinsella, who owns the independent restaurant Lunya with her husband Peter, was diagnosed with Multiple myeloma - a bone marrow cancer - in January 2021. What followed the diagnosis was six months of “aggressive treatment” which consisted of chemotherapy and a stem-cell transplant.
The 58-year-old, who lives in Oxton, Wirral, has been in remission for 18 months now but has been warned her cancer is one that “comes and goes”. Wanting to stay positive the former University of Liverpool student has been “distracting” herself by giving back to those who helped her during a “low” time in her life.
