A whole year.... wait what?Exactly a year ago today, at precisely 8.55am I was forced to embrace yet another upheaval as I was calmly informed, I had cancer. One whole year has passed. I really can not believe this just happened. I remember speaking to Julie (My cancer nurse) on this day, and she rightly informed me, I would have the toughest year of my life, but I would look back, this time next year (now) and just think, I've done it! Now, she wasn't wrong, it was a tough year but I feel overall, I have been able to hold my head together apart from a few little wobbles (but I am human). Depression can be a common side effect from post treatment cancer patients, having this in mind, I have thrown myself into my work as a way to distract myself from the traumatic memories of living through cancer treatment. Wig life! one of the perks... I don't really believe in secrets and this is a safe space...

A ' no holds' page about my life with incurable advanced Breast Cancer, in the hope it will give a realistic, detailed account to other young women going through the unfortunate illness.
