25.01.2022 Good morning, don't let illness define how you think about yourself. You are no the cancer...You are????

25.01.2022 Happy Friday to you all

25.01.2022 Celebrating my 4 year anniversary being in remission today. Gave some flowers to the nurses on the chemotherapy day ward, dropped 14 knitted beanies and some bits and pieces for the patients there today. It was a bit confronting walking in but I'm here to tell the take as they say. Is also my beautiful son's birthday today, happy birthday Cooper My friend Tim was with me today, he had a horrific accident on this day last year so extremely grateful to be Shari g this w...ith him. There is life after cancer but it is a hard walk. Never take life for granted See more

24.01.2022 Hi guys I was wondering if there are any businesses or individuals that could and would help out people/families that are fighting cancer in a practical way. A ...car service, a weekend in a holiday house, groceries, lawns mowed, a cleaning service for a couple of weeks. The list goes on... I know its a big ask but not everyone has family and when you become sick with cancer you truly find out who your friend are. You will only be left with maybe 3 awesome people. I know this because I'm a survivor. Chemo was hell physically, mentally, emotionally and financially. I'm still recovering emotionally and financially after 2 years. So...I want to help people! I have noticed that there is help and people always wanting to help out when its a child that is sick but when its a parent sick, their children get forgotten as they are also suffering. This is the group I will be focusing on. Please note... It is NOT a request for Cash it is practical acts of kindness.. lets pay it forward and give some love back into each others lives. Please PM if you can help or know of a family that really new the help.

24.01.2022 Life is so precious

23.01.2022 Hi guys this is a page I have started! The idea is to get help for parents with cancer. Weekly chores and expenses like groceries, lawns mowed, assist with a bill, a couple of cleaning hours, a car service, a family session of hair cuts, a family pass to the movies. Check it out please?? This is something VERY close to my heart Please note... this is for Victoria South Eastern Suburbs and Mornington Peninsula at this stage. What would you do if you had cancer?

23.01.2022 So...January 2016 I returned to work after my cancer treatment with no hair. I was welcomed back by the members in such a beautiful way that I didn't bother wearing my scarf. Today I was able to tie my hair up for the first time since losing it. Huge gain for me

23.01.2022 Just a reminder to some

22.01.2022 Check this guy out. What a great human being. Personally in the future I would love to organise companies to do stuff like this for cancer patients and their immediate families. It is a necessity and its costly. From mt experience I have no government help. If i didn't have mum and brothers to have helped with bills I have no idea what we would have done. One thing on my bucket list is to buy a holiday rental and for a set amount of weeks per year give weekends away to the sick patients and their immediate family. If you are reading this and know of a business that would be happy to help support a cancer sufferer in a practical way as in this article please send me a pm. Would honestly love to hear from you and start making a difference.

22.01.2022 Check out the curls

21.01.2022 5 years ago... November is my 5 year anniversary. It is really important because they don't class you as cured until then. Mum used to always rub my head and tell me how nice it was.. Some days you have to look back to appreciate how far you have come. ... See more

21.01.2022 Wanted to give you all a laugh.

19.01.2022 About to have a CT scan. Been feeling quite unwell lately. My specialist gave in a is letting me have a scan. And so the IV injections begin

19.01.2022 I had my first hair cut in over 2 years today. It feels great to be doing normal stuff again. So curls are in

19.01.2022 Happy Monday to you all. Just a reminder for all of us

17.01.2022 This is what I'm like. I try to find a funny side in bad situations.... That's how I made it through my treatment emotionally. It's ok to make a joke with someone that is fighting cancer as long as its not offensive. Make them laugh I dare you

17.01.2022 Out patient services- don't know why I both coming.

17.01.2022 Happy Monday to you all You have a loved one fighting cancer??? Go on... say it Hey Cancer...Fuck you

16.01.2022 Its a bloody struggle but there is no choice...you just have to do it!

16.01.2022 Now.... this is such an inspirational story! Cancer is cancer it doesn't matter what sort it is. It affects everyone in the family different way, not just the patient. Please donate if you can even if its $5. And if you have a loved one suffering, wrap you bloody arms around them and tell them that you them. God bless you all.

15.01.2022 To anyone that has been touched by cancer

15.01.2022 I would like to share something with you all. As I was about to start my second round of chemo I got news that a lady I used to work with(Alison), her daughter Bella had T-cell Leukaemia. I cried all day and night for that beautiful girl. I knew what her tiny body was about to endure and felt so deeply for her. And on the other hand I cried for her mum...as a mother myself having to watch your child go through that just broke my heart. Today Alison was ttold that Bella's Le...ukaemia hasn't responded to any of the treatment. They are currently waiting to hear from two hospitals in America to see if they have any trial drugs. For those of you that don't know or understand what T cell is, it's one type of cell that only 20% of people get cancer in and it's alot harder to get rid of. I to had T-cell and as I have mentioned previously my scans werent clear. Its a bloody scary thing to not know or in Alison's case to be told that terrible news. Please send your thoughts and prayers to Bella and her family. Life can be cruel and very hard to understand the why's sometimes. See more

15.01.2022 Happy long weekend to each and every one if you. This week we lost a good man who was always described as a 'great bloke'. He fought a long and bloody tough fight....Here's to you Harry May your family and friends be comforted and know that you are no longer suffering. Below is a list of what cancer CAN'T do. Read it and believe it!!

15.01.2022 3.5 years cancer free and still going strong. Intense health screen in 6 months. Outpatient check up in 12 months. 3.5 years cancer free and still going strong. Intense health screen in 6 months. Outpatient check up in 12 months.

15.01.2022 This is something that needs to be addressed. Please have a read and sign if you can.

14.01.2022 Haematology Oncology time again-One of my doctors has longer hair than I do now. Not sure if it's a mid life crisis or he is growing it to donate for a wig

14.01.2022 Something to think about

14.01.2022 Happy Monday to everyone who reads this page I hope this weeks posts will help life spirits and give encouragement going through this fight xx

13.01.2022 Sometimes the smallest acts of kindness make the world of difference when you are fighting

12.01.2022 I know it's not cancer related but it took me 2 years of serious illness for me to get the doctors to scan my body. If you are at wits end and you KNOW there is something not right with your body, please get a second opinion and ask them to look. You are in charge of your own health

11.01.2022 To all of you that have supported my journey. Its not over and I'll never stop getting stronger.

10.01.2022 Good evening to you all. My last oncology appointment was a surprise...just went I thought the doctors weren't listening again...I was wrong. I have now been transferred to the rheumatology department for assessment for auto-immune diseases. I have been unwell for a few months now, with my tiredness becoming a real issue again. Body aching all over and unable to control my body temperature drives me insane at times, but I truly don't know what i would do without pain killers.... When you have chronic pain it can be hard to sometimes not be snappy and in the last few months I can truly say I have been just that. So much so that it has been partly the reason I have lost my shifts at work. Anyway... I soldier on and swallow that as much as it hurts. My son turns 10 tomorrow, which means it will be 2 years since my last chemotherapy session. I feel blessed to be here for my kids I want to blow my own trumpet tonight because I made 2 wedding cakes this week. I'm really proud of myself and truly happy to have met the person I made this blue wedding cake for. She has such a pure innocent soul. As always...all my love to Bella who is struggling with illness after her stem cell transplant *Below are 2 wedding cakes I made this week that I'm so proud of. Feel free to follow my page Susan's Cake Decorating

10.01.2022 Hey guys cancer does it discriminate, please check yourself regularly.

09.01.2022 Happy Sunday guys, Just saw this video and I felt some relevance to how I feel some times. A little food for thought.

08.01.2022 Don't stay away from someone you care about because you don't know what to say. You don't have to be sorry...treat them like you did before cancer raised its ugly head. Hold there hand and fight with them

08.01.2022 Due to the many side effects of chemotherapy and radiation you will never feel 100% yourself because your immune system (and your whole body in general) is weakened and you must learn to function in your "new normal"! Certainly, in the hardest moments of life, you realize who your real friends are or who really appreciate you and will be by your side. Unfortunately, like most friendships, Facebook friends will leave you in the middle of a story. They will publish a "like" for... the story. They may not really read your message if they see that it's long. More than half may have already stopped reading. And some may have gone on to the next post in your news summary. I have decided to publish this message to support the families, friends and relatives who have combated this terrible disease to the end. Cancer is a very invasive and destructive enemy for our bodies. Even after the end of treatment, the body remains broken even in an attempt to repair and restore the damage caused by the treatment to fight the disease. It is a very long process! Please, in honor of a relative or a friend who has died of cancer, or who is in remission, or who continues to fight cancer, copy and paste this message as a post on your Facebook. I am hopeful that most of you who see this message will read it to the end and publish it to show your support to the families and/friends who know the struggle oh too well! Please copy, paste or share If you complete this, write "done" in the comments. Thanks in advance for joining the cause. Cancer really sucks but we'll fight to the end!!! See more

07.01.2022 My baby is all cuddly again. Has taken me a long time to gain her trust again. When I was having chemo I couldn't touch her..she got quite nasty but we are back being buddies again. Isnt she just beautiful

07.01.2022 3rd lot of virus/cold/sickness since March. I get about a week break then something else. Being regularly sick wears you down physically after a while. Weak as a kitten today. Bloody over it all !!

07.01.2022 Some pics from my trip back to where it all began. #fuckcancer

07.01.2022 Do you love music? I love music!! On the days you find it hard to smile or not burst into tears at everything... try singing!! Seriously give it your all and I promise, you will feel better. The tears won't come when you're singing.

07.01.2022 Happy hump day everyone Just stumbled across this short video. No... it's not about me so please don't worry. I thought it was interesting from a patient point of view. The side you don't get to hear.

06.01.2022 This one is for you Harry xxx

06.01.2022 Treating myself to a relaxing hair session. This is my 4th hair cut since it has grown back. Dying some greys away. The hairdresser that is doing it is the same awesome lady that cut my long hair off before I told my children about my diagnosis. Life is a blessing and we all get sent obstacles to get over in life. Look at life with love and gratitude and you can get through almost anything.

04.01.2022 So I went back to the oncologist today for my 3 months check up. The last couple of weeks haven't been kind to me but this week I have been in a whole world of pain. My body is aching all over, I can't be bothered eating because it takes to much energy. Getting dinner ready for the family is such a chore at the moment. Its been ok but just quick and easy meals is what they have been getting. Blood tests have shown nothing and that's a great thing except this is what was h...appening to me 2 years prior to me being diagnosed. Last night my sweats were terrible, I got up early hours of this morning and had to change my PJ's because they were so wet from night sweats. The doctors don't like to give scans unnecessary as its exposure to radiation but the specialist has agreed to give me a CT scan as a first point. I want to participate in my life not watch it pass.

04.01.2022 I currently have laryngitis so no voice !!. It's bloody annoying because I don't sleep well at the moment. While I was running the kids around on Tueaday being mums taxi. Cooper and I decided to sneak in an amazing ice cream. Cooper had red skin and I had rum n raison. To die for and no it wasn't light ice cream it was full sugar and fat etc haha. Didn't help my voice but it did put a smile on our faces. My favourite man in the while world.

03.01.2022 Happy Friday to all of you, if you are struggling today take it and be ok with it. Fighting it will just tire you out. Do what your body is telling you and remember tomorrow is another day.

03.01.2022 Feeling so unwell that I have hardly slept. When you're feeling sore and uncomfortable its better to get out of bed and do something than to be un happy and tossing all night. This is becoming all a to familiar feelings again.

02.01.2022 Today it is my son's 9th birthday and I'm so grateful to be here and healthy so I can enjoy it with him. Today also marks 1 year since my last chemo dose. Another reason to be super grateful and glad to be healthy. I still have a possibility that my disease may return one day but right now I have my life and I intend on living it to its fullest. A few photos that I look back on to remind myself how precious life is. The picture of my kids on the slide is the first time in years I was strong enough to take them out to a park on my own. Live a clean life and exercise, treat your body like a temple. It is precious.

02.01.2022 Happy Friday , sometimes a laugh is what everyone needs. Love to you and yours.
