Day 18: Medicine for the soul
I am sitting looking out the window at all the wildlife and a blue sky! Yesterday was good. Went to Alnmouth Beach
This my cancer journey from diagnosis through treatment to beyond. It’s part of my coping mechanism and an essential part of yours
Day 17: Chakras and sheep
Yesterday was a good day after it started badly! Tried oat milk in my coffee followed by green tea…thought I was going to be sick!!!!
Day 16: Research and disgusting hair
Went to my hospital appointment for reconstruction advice. Came out feeling crap
Day 15: Best wishes
I am going to try and get something positive out of all this. Thinking along the lines of a cancer coach at the moment. Very unsure about chemo but I will do more research.
Day 14: Meltdown and a bunch of horrible cells
I have decided that it’s better to talk about it than hide from it. That word ‘cancer’ strikes fear into everyone and really it’s just a bunch of horrible cells.
Day 13: Unplugged
Woke up at 4am!!! FFS!! Did 2 meditations couldn’t get back to sleep, will nap later.
Day 12: Dropped another bombshell
Made a Sunday dinner for me, Ali, Mum and Dad. Told them about the cancer. Very difficult, Had to get Ali to start the conversation. Couldn’t bring myself to actually say the words.
Day 10: Reasons to live
Despite the circumstances, yesterday was a good day on the whole. Sunny too, which helped.
Day 9: It’s Lobular
Yesterday I found out I have Lobular Breast Cancer. It’s Oestrogen and Progesterone fed which is a good thing (apparently). I was upset for a few seconds but fine after that
