I’ve found myself with a rather lot of time on my hands so here I am posting my very first blog; although I’m not really sure what a blog is – kind of diary, bite-size book about my ‘journey’ with breast cancer? I really don’t like the term ‘journey’ when speaking about my cancer. Most journeys I’ve been on have had an exciting destination. They involve preparation, excitement, a beginning and an ending. I guess journey could work. Maybe I should look up the word ‘journey’ in the dictionary, I’ll look up ‘blog’ while I’m there too!

Seems apt today as my time hop on Facebook has just told me this time last year was my 20th and last radiotherapy. Well … Continue reading What a difference a year makes
