Hello! I know it's been a while, to be honest I've been taking some time to recover and have a fresh start, or at least try to feel normal. Since my last post I've have lots of positive experiences, celebrated my 40th, been for a little holiday, starting working freelance and enjoyed time with family and friends.
I've also had a few a wobbles and anxious moments, which I've been assured is totally to be expected. I find it hard not to worry about my health and I still get fatigue after a busy weekend or few days.
My confidence is still not totally there, I think that has a lot to do with hair, though I still have my trusty wig. It is growing back but it's still patchy, (sometimes I want to hibernate until it's grown) I'm still waiting on a few more lashes and eyebrows to come back and when I look in the mirror I don't feel like me. But I'm SO incredibly grateful to be here, I've also had my first follow up mammogram that was all clear, which is amazing. What is great is I have a supportive network around me and my breast care nurses are still available for me to talk to when I need to ask questions. This whole recovery thing will take time which I need to remember.
Please remember to check to yourselves! X
