Mum's Not Having Chemo is a blog about a woman named Gemma Bond's experience with cancer. In 2011, Bond was diagnosed with ovarian and uterine cancer. Because of her belief in alternative medicine's effectiveness for cancer, she chose to use alternative treatments instead of chemotherapy. She did have a hysterectomy, so she was merely taking a 36% increased chance of relapse and death.

The blog is largely written by Laura, her daughter, who addresses various topics, usually supportive of alternative medicine such as homeopathy, pee therapy, black salve, and medical astrology.

The blog was updated weekly, and started from the cancer diagnosis. Quite naturally,^{[pun intended]} she died, in 2016.
