Teal is the Ovarian Cancer ribbon colour…I kinda hope you never need to know about it - BUT being as ostrich and ignoring anything that feels off - also doesn’t serve you.
So my fellow sisters, and misters of all good women - if something seems off - please go get yourself checked. Chat to your GP, don’t be gaslit, chat and continue until you feel satisfied.
I bought these shoes when I was told I could stop chemotherapy.
They’ll forever remind me that I survived that nightmare.
The pop of pink adds fun, love and laughter - because even in the darkest, steroid insomnia, nauseating, bone fatigue, surgical pain recovery - there were still so many moments of love and laughter.
If you’re in the trenches… keep going.
Yeah - fear sits in me sometimes like a spear in my throat, but I also have a deep,deep faith and belief that I will continue to have clear CT scans for the next 5 years.
1 down. 4 to go.
NED (no evidence of disease) feels like the BEST event finish line ever. After marathons, adventure races, bike podium, Hyrox smashes - this is by far the greatest line, and the one that took the absolute most grit.
And know, it’s okay to hold a million emotions at one time.
Sending love to everyone in the hurt locker, or who is holding someone in the hurt locker - lean on your friends and family ###
