Breast Cancer Awareness Month
It’s been 7 whole years since my first diagnosis of Breast Cancer. At this point I had an excellent prognosis as it was caught so early with very little treatment needed. Little did I know what lay ahead…
I had 7 wonderful years of making memories, creating my business, following my dreams, holidays, adventures and most importantly raising my two precious little world wins. Albie and Artie are my biggest strength and reason in this never ending journey 💙💙
At the beginning of this year, I started to experience severe pain in my right side, just under my ribs. I was convinced I had gallstones. I was never prepared to hear the words ‘Stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer’. I didn’t even know what this word meant but basically it’s when the cancer has spread to other areas of the body and is no longer deemed curable but can be treatable. My secondary cancer is in my Liver.
Since this moment, I have had numerous scans, tests, injections, surgical procedures, chemotherapy infusions, targeted treatment, hormone treatment, hair loss, mental challenges and the constant fear of the future. I often feel like I’m looking at my new life as an outsider and it’s hard at times to comprehend that it’s actually me.
Despite all of this, I have also had days of joy, relationships have grown deeper and stronger, life is so appreciated in the very little moments, hope is at the forefront always and I try to remain as positive as I possibly can!! Our minds are the most powerful part in all of this 🙏🏻
A little message to focus on throughout this month…make time each week to check your b***s, trust your intuition, trust your body and soul. If anything doesn’t feel quite right, be sure to get checked!!!
Life is so unbelievably precious so live every single day with gratitude and love ✨🫶🏻
