Getting on with life.

Worst year of my life 2013. .......

Well it's now June 2017 and I will be 56 in 3 days, thought at 1 point I wouldn't be here, so having just done the zip wire at Bethesda North Wales, I think I am pretty lucky.

Scan in mid July followed by Oncologist in August, friends getting married (3day event) August first, after wedding invites by the score ( so thrilled) then going to Uganda to teach midwifery skills to lay Village women in November. My life is fuller than ever, sooooo lucky and have my wonderful husband 3 boys and 5 grandchildren.

Just wanted to say persevere all you ladies it can make your life better!! Yes I did say better!! Love to all x

Lovely post Ann and very uplifting for many ladies currently having treatment and medical appointments.

Love the hat and hope you enjoy the wedding 😊.

What a lovely thing to do to share your valuable skills in Uganda so others can benefit, well done to you & enjoy your trip. Doesn't this dreadful disease refocus us?

Keep as well as possible and carry on enjoying your life ❤️Xx Jane
