Hey beautiful people
Firstly thank you all so so much, from the bottom of my heart for all your continued love, kindness, and support, I am so truly grateful 🙏
Last Friday I completed the final stage of my breast reconstruction surgery and after 5 challenging days recovering and regaining my strength in hospital, I am today finally back home with my beautiful daughter and partner. Even having completed another milestone when I was able to have the last of the 3 drains removed from my left side by a district nurse. This was such a relief! And felt like a massive win, however small it might be. Wahoo 😃
According to the specialists 'targeted’ Radiation is the next step and they have asked that I travel down to Palmerston North for a scan that will establish the particular spots we are going to have to target. This will take place next week and then radiation will commence 3 weeks after that. For this treatment I will be required to be away from home once again, and although Palmerston is only a couple of hours away from my little girl, I know this is still really going to test my mental & emotional strength as I am forced to spend even more time away from her at such a precious young stage of her life. But I am focused and working very hard to do all that I can and all that I need to, to get myself well again and beat this Cancer so I can enjoy her and be there for what I know will be a very happy, healthy, and long life ahead of us once this is all over!
A lot of amazing and generous kind souls have been asking how they can help and asking what it is I need, and I feel so truly blessed! Honestly, any and all support is so truly appreciated and has made a world of difference in this journey for me and my little family so far!
If there is one thing I need the most right now (other than lots of love and positive healing vibes) it would be more access to fresh organic produce and healing whole foods, which I hope to be able to stock up on as often as I possibly can, with the aim of being able to take enough down to Palmy with me so I can continue to ensure I am able to have the most nourishing meals for healing and recovery whilst down there on my own. With all the fear and uncertainty that surrounds this journey I am channelling my strength and attention to things that are in my control.. one of the most important of those is the nourishing of my cellular health, not just for my physical health, but also too it is hugely important for my mental & emotional health!
I don’t want to be too proud or stubborn to put it out there to the collective for help, when every dollar makes such a huge difference to my ability to obtain all that I need to, to fight and overcome this battle! Sadly, with all the additional costs, before even trying to continuously flood my body with only the very best-quality, organic food/nutrition (I am leading this journey with as much of a holistic approach as I can manage), it does truly add up, to far more than I can manage on my own!!
With my little family only just surviving with the basics while I’m not able to work it has put what feels like a impossible strain on my finances. Knowing that this stress in itself can hinder my healing and recovery, I am doing the uncomfortable, and asking that anyone that can spare even just a few dollars to please donate to the give-a-little fund that was set up for me by a very special friend, a fund that to date, every single dollar that has generously been donated has gone toward Cancer and Health related expenses, which has been the most amazing blessing. Without you all I know I wouldn’t be where I am today!! So again, thank you! THANK YOU so very much from the bottom of my heart for any and all donations to my cause, and to the ongoing love and support you are all giving. It’s so very true when they say that every bit counts!
Honestly cancer is the most expensive self love journey ever but the upgrades I’m going through from being able to upgrade my cellular health 1000x more than I was doing is a true blessing and has made healing so much easier 💜
I am exhausted, but I am strong! And I have so much faith in the universe to provide all that I need, to flood my body with pure goodness, to stay mentally and emotionally strong, and to keep kicking cancer to the curb 🫶🏼💓
