Breast cancer awareness month

As a Breast cancer survivor of 9yrs, I find I have different reactions to Breast cancer awareness month even on a day to day basis. 

Sometimes I resent the reminder that 9yrs ago this month I was recovering from a mastectomy & fretting over starting chemotherapy. That our first wedding anniversary & my 40th birthday was over-shadowed by my recovery.

Other times I’m grateful & humble I’ve made it 9yrs past some of the worst days of my life. 

Mostly I wish for every awareness campaign there were equal amounts of energy put towards finding a cure.

11Feb23 Lunch Group at the Mt Compass Hotel. This was the Fish Platter and I couldn't finish it. I took what was left home and had it for my dinner. It was really good. I even took Per's salt & pepper calamari home too! We plan to return as everything was lovely - the food AND the service. @MtCompassHotel #2023pad #lunchgroup #lunch #MtCompass #mtcompasstavern #fishplatter

But isn't GaliLEO so cute stretched out and about as conked out as you can get? #2023pad #catsofinstagram #pinkcat #sleepingcatsofinstagram

9Feb23 I thought I had possibly broke my arm, so got a ride to the hospital to get it x-rayed. It wasn't broke (phew!), but it was badly sprained. The day before I had, for 10 full minutes, stood at my boxing bag and beat the heck out of it. That didn't help - so I had muscle soreness from that, but then I was carrying a water reservoir from my dryer and bumped into a wall, wobbled or otherwise was carrying it awkwardly, and that's when it started really hurting. The dryer is...

The dryer is self contained (no vents), so I have to drain the water that it removed from the clothes, when I'm done washing for the week. #arm #fracture #hospital #sprain #2023pad #dryer #wobble
