21.01.2022 Hi friends I've been thinking of you all and hoping everyone is keeping well! I haven't posted in awhile. Anything I have to say seems to pale in comparison to all that is going on in the world lately, it seems selfish to talk about myself. But hey....here I am I will continue to get the words out of my head. The week before last was pretty stressful. 1 night in hospital with Jada felt like a week. I was desperately hoping for no more 'surprises'. Her beautiful doctor cal...Continue reading
17.01.2022 I've felt quite anxious today, wondering how sharing so much info will be perceived. Let's keep it real - there are so many people much worse off than me. It breaks my heart to think of what some people go through, how much of a struggle getting through each day is. I've always been grateful for the little things in life, healthy kids, amazing family and friends, a roof over my head, coffee Gratitude is my favourite word and despite the curve balls it will continue to be my... favourite word. I just have so much going through my head and I am choosing to share my thoughts and feelings because for me it's better out than in. The response I've received today has blown me away, every comment, message, phone call is truly appreciated and I will try and respond to everyone personally. The week ahead is looking crazy so I'll get you all up to date soon! Much love to you all
15.01.2022 I've always been an avid over sharer. Give me 5 minutes and ask the right questions and I'll give you my life story I enjoy hearing people's stories, discovering their triumphs and tribulations, their views on life and lessons learned. I'm pretty much an open book and I guess that's why I have decided to share with you details of a few curve balls the universe has sent my way recently. Let's go back to November 2019 (Birthday month ). I discovered a lump in the groin area..., protruding, so clearly visible yet painless. Odd . My first thought was I must have strained something exercising or whatever - moving on, I'm busy doing life. A few weeks later still there. At Dan's insistence and Teshy pointing out that it could be a lymph node issue I went to my gp. She found my axillary nodes (underarm) also enlarged and sent me off for an ultrasound. In the days following those bad boys were biopsied. It's funny how certain dates stick in your mind so vividly. Like, I can't remember what I did yesterday yet I remember December 2nd 2019 when I got THAT fucking call!! My beautiful doctor (she has been and is amazing) requested to see me asap regarding the biopsy results. She ever so gently gives me the diagnosis - stage 3 Follicular Lymphoma, a subtype of Non Hodgkins Lymphoma, blood cancer. Hmmm ok. I remember a few things, treatable not curable, likened to a chronic illness you live with but won't die from, if you are going to get cancer this is the best type to get! I was cool with that.....for about 24hrs. Then reality set in and turns out I wasn't so cool with it after all So much has happened since then and there is so much yet to come and I aim to have you all up to date soon if you choose to follow. Why have I chosen to call my page The Luckiest Girl In The World? Because I have THE most AMAZING family and friends a girl could possibly wish for, I am truly grateful for that and most days that love and support alone has me feeling like the luckiest girl in the world Be kind, Much love P.S. I love using emojis and I feel entitled to swear a lot these days (apologies in advance to mum and dad for my language choices )
14.01.2022 Mentally and physically I feel like I'm 102yo!! Looking in the mirror though I'm pretty confident I'd get away with 85yo I didn't sleep well last night and I'm having to remind myself to breathe - let me tell you why.... I've got this spectacular 13yo daughter! She's intelligent, funny, talented, compassionate and SO beautiful She's had a few health issues of her own the past few months. After several tests etc, doctors/specialists are all fairly certain she has Crohns D...isease WTF Tomorrow we head down to the Queensland Children's Hospital for an endoscopy/colonoscopy procedure to determine a clear diagnosis. I'm feeling pretty anxious for her, she's in for a wild ride of her own my beautiful girl. She's such a little warrior, taking it all in her stride. This kid has amazed me each and every day for 13years and I know she will continue to amaze me for many years to come. I'm the luckiest girl in the world to be her mumma Pray for my baby Much love to you all See more
07.01.2022 Hey beautiful peeps Let's keep the story rolling! December- January was a blur of fancy tests. I fell head over heels in love with the green whistle during the bone marrow biopsy (what I wouldn't give to have one of those tucked away in my top drawer ), I was and continue to be overwhelmed by messages of love, support and advice. I had special visitors (the extremes you go to to get a visit from the bff, Nicolle). 2 handsome henchman taking me out for lunch - Cousins Kyl...Continue reading
