Bree’s Biggest Morning Tea

My newest hobby Junk Journaling. It’s important for me to be able to calm my mind and alleviate some of the stress in my life so I take on new hobbies all the time. This is my page dedicated to cancer but I have lots of other pages going 🙂 I’m rubbish at it now but I’ll get the hang of it I’m sure!

Today is my daughter’s 15th birthday and I really didn’t know if I would get to see that happen. So, today above all else, I am grateful to spend quality time with her and my little family. I am so beyond proud of who she is - so proud!

Love family time!

This weeks update -

It’s been a pretty good week, nothing too major to really report but I am still dealing with this crippling anxiety.
I went to my doctor (GP) who has started a process to put me on the right medication (for now) without being an issue with my cancer meds.
It is a slow process and her biggest advice was that I need to work through my feelings and my grief and trauma from something too big to comprehend (facing death) and I agree, although I know it’s going to be a very bumpy road.
I’ve filmed a video talking about my experience and I will upload it at some point but not just yet.

I am very curious to see how my thoughts and opinions change from now to once I’ve unpacked all of this.

I’m still above all else trying to stay as positive as possible and appreciate that life threw me a curveball but I was able to fight and get my way through.

I have questioned my faith more than I wish to admit but I’m learning to accept things for what they are.

I’ll be fine, I am strong and I am a warrior -
as always ❤️

When I heard the words “I’m sorry to say, but it is cancer” just over a year ago, my whole life turned upside down. But in that moment I chose to fight.. and so I did, and thankfully, I won. But now after so long, my body and mind have decided now is the time to be afraid. So I’m giving myself some motivation to fight through this just like I have before. I have picked up scrapbooking lately and I have photos from my journey and my cancer photoshoot, so I decided to do something creative with them. It’s raw and unpolished but that’s just me.

1 year, 3 months and 18 days ago my world changed forever.
You never know what you will do in those moments. For me, I thought I would break apart, but for some reason I found the fire that I needed to get through. I chose to fight.
Luckily and thanks to God I got through when so many don’t.

I am just starting to feel the after effects of what I went through.. the fear, the grief and the anxiety has crept up on me. I wake up each day terrified of what can happen and how quickly it all changes. It’s going to take a while to unpack everything but I have learnt through this that I really can do hard things and that I will fight, so I know I’ll be ok.

Who knows why I lived.. but I need to make my life worth it. I can do this. Roar!
