My Pink Ribbon Journey. Through breast cancer and beyond. Pictures – a hair chronicle. Pictures of me, pre and post diagnosis. Posted Feb, 2012 (mostly written for my first breast cancer speech to help raise awareness and funds for the NBCF Australia). Thankfully I was born in 1971. And whilst I hate admitting my old age (I’m sure you are thoroughly shocked I’m 40, I’m still getting over it myself! Without it, my odds of survival would have been slim. Despite this, I did check my breasts regularly. P...

This entry was posted on October 28, 2014, in Breast Cancer. Life after breast cancer. And tagged desmoid tumor.

Within three days I had a new plan. This time (unlike with my breast cancer d...

My Pink Ribbon Journey. Through breast cancer and beyond. Pictures – a hair chronicle. Pictures of me, pre and post diagnosis. Dating after breast cancer….finally a good story! This entry was posted on July 25, 2015, in Breast Cancer. Life after breast cancer. And tagged breast cancer. On new years Eve 2014/2015, I made a vow. After spending my year in 2014 focused on gratitude. My life was very excellent without a ‘love interest’. But I have to say it was missing something rather important in retros...

My Pink Ribbon Journey. Through breast cancer and beyond. Pictures – a hair chronicle. Pictures of me, pre and post diagnosis. Goodbye AC chemo, I wont miss you! This entry was posted on January 29, 2011, in AC chemo. I am very pleased to say, the aliens have left the building. Or in other words, I am feeling myself again. Actually, I just hung up from a friend who said ‘oh my god, you sound like yourself again for the first time in a week’. No sh*t! Out of interest, I just revisited a list of common AC ...

Going, going… | Tweecher

A teacher who tweets. Going, going…. What had she done? With chalk white knuckles, Muriel clung onto the steering wheel like she was on a rollercoaster ride about to take an untoward. Bend She was hurtling off the rails with alarming speed. A ripple. Of panic lasered through her core, slicing her in half. Lily and Beth. Her girls, her brood. Would they ever understand? Would they remember all this? She flicked the radio on; a summery lilt. Filled the car like toxic smoke. Evocative. Larr; Strawberry Dream.

This and that: Frustration!
http://theotheralig.blogspot.com/2013/06/frustration.html
Musings and wonderings about a world that constantly charms and amazes me - and just occasionally infuriates me! Tuesday, 25 June 2013. Shaking so badly I cannot write. Becoming breathless getting dressed. Being unable to pick up the basket of wet washing. Realising changing the bed is beyond me. No longer being able to eat a three course meal - mostly one course is too much. Having to accept a strict regime of medication. That I cannot go out for the day without a wheelchair. I can only do light cooking.

This and that: The monsoon arrived... Week 1

Musings and wonderings about a world that constantly charms and amazes me - and just occasionally infuriates me! Saturday, 25 May 2013. The monsoon arrived. Week 1. I will soon be running out of analogies for my titles so really hope this run of hospitalisations stops soon. I was nil by mouth from 6am. By 9.15pm the ward staff and Mr G were becoming very concerned, I had had nothing to eat or drink for 15 hours, and we still did not know if I was to have surgery or not. On Saturday morning I felt a bit m...
