For those of you that have been following my Journey would know that I have been tested for Secondary cancer. I never knew about secondary cancer really before – even though I was a nurse. I’ve heard of metastases, which is pretty much the same thing, but never working in oncology, never really understood the meaning as much as I should have. So whilst I sit here aged 31 – wishing I checked my breasts sooner and more regularly, it is with a heavy heart that our suspicions were right. Unfortunately my breast cancer has spread to my lungs. Luckily for me it’s not formed a tumour yet and is sitting happily in my nodes by my windpipe. The road ahead is not a pretty one and I will never be cured from this terrible disease 😢😢 For now the doctors will try and keep it at bay by having more chemotherapy. Hopefully for many more years yet to come.
Some would say my Journey is too ‘open’ on social media. However, if I can get one more lady to check her boobs and save more lives, then my job is done.
For now we are burying this crap and going to try and enjoy a weekend away. Thank you for all your support 💛💛💛
