As part of the ‘Belfast City Hospital Journeys’- a series of short films created by young people in the hospital, this is Adel’s poem “Butterfly”. She describes how her time in hospital is similar to hiding away like a caterpillar, until the day comes when she can leave, spread her wings and transform into a butterfly.
The second chapter of Jenna’s film series, in this fabulous instalment we hear how Jenna is eagerly waiting for bone marrow treatment and get an update on how her fifth course of chemo is going. Her family and friends are around to bring laughter and fun and we get an impromptu lesson on how to perform sign language! Jenna is checking up on the nurses again, with some secret zooming in and we are given a tour of Belfast as we see the view from her window. From drawing to Xbox, Jenna also explains how she occupies her time in hospital, with visits from friends and family being top on the list!
This is the second of Gavin’s films and also another film part of the ‘Belfast City Hospital Journeys’ project, co-facilitated by Arts Care and CLIC Sargent. Here, we see a different look at living with cancer through a series of unusual images and graphics, complete with some recognizable hospital sound effects!
