Hello beautiful ladies!

I have missed you all and hope you are enjoying summer as much as I am!

I know it’s been a while again!

I’m 3.5 years in now and still have NEAD! I keep pushing the fear away in the back of my head of the day this will no longer be the case!

But I must say, I am happier today than I was before this stage 4 diagnosis! It’s given me FREEDOM and a second chance at life! It was a huge wake up call for me and I am doing everything in my power to heal and not fight, but learning how to truly live!!

I turned 54 in Aruba together with the stage 4 ladies at my villas! We went on a catamaran and went snorkelling, had some booze and lunch and even swung off the boat by rope!! A day I won’t soon forget! 🤣

Next up is Greece in September! 2 different villas on 2 different islands! It’s already fully booked up! I have never been and can’t wait for that adventure! First I will go to the Netherlands to break up the long flight and to spread my mom’s ashes on the lake close to where she lived. She had a great life!

I’m also already working on going back to Aruba again in November! I’m so in love with that island, maybe I will buy a small condo there one day! Something to live for! 🤣

I made a special Facebook group, just for us ladies with stage 4 whom are still well enough to go on adventures! It now has over 2000 members! It started out as me supporting them, but I feel it’s the other way around now and they are supporting me more than I them! It makes me weep really, how one post turned into thousands and the many friendships I have established and how much love I have received. The link is below should you want to join as well! :)

Love you all so much! Keep plowing away, one day at the time! After all, it’s not how long you have lived, but how you lived with the time you have!

Have fun with the things you’ll do today!

Much love & hugs,

Miriam

it’s great to see your update! Thanks for sharing. I always enjoyed your upbeat posts here.

I’m not into travel so much, but I love hearing about other people’s adventures.

I live in a rural area with a pool in the wide open backyard so that’s as far as I go lol.

I was diagnosed 3 years ago and while I keep waiting for a NEAD report, mine show improvement each time. Slow and steady but I feel great, I’m able to work full time and enjoy lots of time with my two grandkids ♥️

All the best with your next trip. I look forward to hearing about it

Love seeing your posts and so glad to hear you are NEAD. You are so right to keep truly living as the number one priority and not cancer. Keep being the sunshine every day 🌻

So happy for you!I was unaware that those of us with metastatic Breast Cancer could ever reach NEAD.

Mine is at least manageable while taking Enhertu plus white blood cell meds and bone infusions.

Stay as happy as you now are and keep enjoying your fellow cancer survivors 💋
