Going through cancer is one of the toughest things life can throw at you- both for the person going through it and their loved ones. However, maintaining a calm mindset as much as possible and stopping going negative thought spirals too often helps with the healing process. When I found myself getting anxious, I found […]

Over the last year, I’ve done a lot of shadow work – going through cancer means you are basically forced to confront many different elements of yourself as you are literally put in many challenging situations – so I saw it as a growth opportunity, but over a year later, I’m still reeling from it.

I’ve procrastinated over starting to post regularly again, as I’m worried about sharing my journey as it might be triggering or cause people to unsubscribe because I’m talking about having cancer and all that entails (but not only that!) Somehow when I was on chemo, I was happy to share – I think it was part […]

After getting the diagnosis back in July, literally the next day I started booking alternative healing treatments.

So much has happened since my last update… ALL the scans So I went back and had a few more scans- a special kind of CT Scan to zoom in on the area of the tumour (not a pleasant experience given where it is!) They have to inflate your colon with air to get a […]

What a week it’s been after my diagnosis last week. There are moments when it hits me like a tonne of bricks and moments when I feel almost normal. Such a surreal kind of experience. But I do have some good news- the surgery is going ahead this Tuesday as they had hoped. I had […]

Well this is a blog I honestly never thought I’d write. Where to start? It’s not easy especially as this kind of cancer isn’t exactly easy to talk about- as Deborah James describes it- it’s the brown cancer.
