The mountain is getting tricky

I can see the top of this mountain but like all climbers as you get higher the altitude gets thinner and the rocks get harder. Even though I know the cancer has gone and the party is all set at the summit the final leg is hard. Treatment is horrible and makes me so weak. My body is taking over a week now to recover and I'm finding just the little things are such hard work. But my pick axe is out and I'm hacking my way on.

I have managed to spend some days with the kids this week. Which has finished the school holidays on a happy family note. All the uniform and bags are ready and even tho they drive you mad, I will miss them but looking forward to getting back into routine and finishing the treatment. Christmas will be a holiday time that will be so good. We might as a family get back to normality and quality time with out the stress and worry.

Big shout out to all who have helped this last 6 weeks. Thank you

29th December 2023 Life Update

Hi their, well yesterday I stumble across my blog that I had totally forgot about, so I thought I would leave a little new blog post.  Life has been storming ahead, celebrating that I am over 11 years clear from cancer and embracing all that life throws at me, good or bad, easy or hard.  Life is a journey and we all have those obstacles to navigate. You know that for me I have Faith in God and so thankful that I don't need to carry the burden, I can give it all to him.  My Life has changed over the years, but the foundations still remain the same, faith, prayer, worship, family, and friends, but now experiencing a whole new level of work, projects and opportunities. I have found a world outside of my own little life that I never knew existed, and have had the privilege to make good friendships that have gone beyond my imagination. I have steeped out far from my comfort zone on public speaking and now share my life and faith in ways that I never knew I would. Learnt new sk...

Sorry I have not blogged this week, I have totally forgotten that inside my body I have a horrid disease and Feel totally normal. I have just carried on with everyday life of being a mum and wife. The only thing that is strange is not going to work. I miss that very much and hopefully if I carry on like this and only have a couple of sick days after chemotherapy I can go back. My mind is trying to work it all out again and I need to just take one day at a time. I am finding that tonight I am fed up with living my life round hospital appointments, and being stuck in a situation I can not make better. Why does all this take so long??? I need to keep strong but sometimes I feel like shouting from the top of my voice WHY ME. I know God is in control and has me tight in his arms . Tomorrow will be a new day and my faith will pick back up again. Tonight I just needed to SCREAM !!!

Phew that was a hard 3 days. Knocked me sideways but back standing again. The drugs really mad me sick and tired with an emergency trip to see the doctor. But thankfully it has only lasted 3 days and now back to normal. I now go into my week off treatment where my body can rest and get strong again for round 2! Chemo makes my skin very dry and I have turned into a lizard. My hands look about 90years old. Thank God for Olay. My appetite is strange and fancy different things each day. Today its toast. Lol Big shout out to the amazing St Helen's school in cliffe for a wonderful school fair. It was great to catch up on friendly faces and children. I have missed them shouting Mrs Bourne across the classroom. From mrs Barr to fosh you did a great job today. My kids came back sticky with candy floss and Ice cream. One thing I hope and pray is through this blog people will be encouraged and know that in any situation God is always there. I have had an amazing card this week from a sp...
