  • So Shine Bright ✨ On 21st July 2019 Our Worlds Got Darker. An Actual Angel On Earth @TierneyKinsella Left Us. The News Rocked Me In Ways I Can’t Comprehend. As I’m Sure It Did All Who Know & Love Her. Although Knowing Her What Feels The Shortest Time. T’s Impact Was Powerful. It Was Light. It Was Love. Something About Her Energy Lit Everything Up. Even When Things Got Dark She Shone. Been Struggling To Find Words To Do Tierney Any Justice. But Today I Saw This And Knew It Was For Her. A Light Went Out On Earth For Us. The Day We Said Goodbye. And On That Day A Star Was Born. The Brightest In The Sky. Reaching Through The Darkness. With It’s Rays Of Purest White. Lighting Up The Heavens. As It Once Lit Up Our Lives. With Beams Of Love To Heal. The Broken Hearts You Left Behind. Where Always In Our Memory. Your Lovely Star Will Shine. Proud To Have Known You Sweet Girl. Thoughts Are With All T’s Family & Friends. I’m So Very Sorry For This Incredible Loss.

  • Young + Wild + Free ✌🏻 Yesterday @Trekstock Made An Extra Special Announcement. That They Have Some Extra Awesome New Ambassadors. And Guess What. I’m Only Bloody Ones Of Them. Couldn’t Be Prouder To Be Part Of Team Trekstock! Trekstock Found Me Very Early On In My Cancer ‘Journey’. Finding Me On Instagram They Slid Into My DM’s. Before You Could Say ‘Chemo’ I Was At Their HQ. Being Showered With Wise Words. Unconditional Support. Since Then The Network Has Formed My Support System. Team @Trekstock Have Held My Hand. Through Some Of The Darkest Times Of My Life. I’ll Never Be Able To Repay Them. But This Feels Like An Appropriate Way To Try! In It’s Tenth Year I’m Overwhelmed To Be An Ambassador. To Fly The Trekstock Flag High. So Grateful For The Fab Folk They’ve Brought Into My Life. They Are The Only Institution Buoying Young Adults. And Shining Light On The Unique Challenges Faced. By Those Affected In Their 20’s & 30’s. Their Projects, Meet Up’s & Fundraisers Are Epic. Ensuring No Adult Faces Cancer Alone. Over The Moon To Be Alongside Such Legends. Keep Your Peepers Peeled Gang. Loads More To Come. Go #TeamTrekstock!
  • Trusting Your Gut 😬 Let’s Talk About ‘Dex Shall We. As In Zoladex. Last Year I Began The Process Of Medical Menopause. Shutting Down My Ovaries To Try Keep The Cancer Away. This Is Because My Cancer Feeds Off Hormones. No Oestrogen = Lower Risk Of Recurrence. So I Take Tamoxifen To Block My Hormone Receptors. And Zoladex To Stop Producing Any Hormones At All. The Result. Oestrogen Suppression That Far Superseds Natural Menopause. Don’t Get Me Wrong I’m Grateful For These Zoladex Drugs. For The Implant I Have Inserted Each Month For Five Years. However I’m More Than Fucked Off With The Side Effects. At 34 Years Old I Am Broken By Them. Eighteen Months Ago I Waved Goodbye To My Libido. ‘Not Tonight Love My Little Lady Is Like The Sahara.’ It’s Made Me Avoid Dating. And Getting The D In General. My Mood Is Mostly Lower Than Low. Each Day Struggling To Find Joy In Things. Teetering Dangerously On The Edge Of Depression. Lack Of Motivation. Fatigue Fucking My Vibe. Joints That Ache At The Slightest Exertion. Forgetting Names, Places + Faces. My Sharp Mind Now Resembling Your Average Kitchen Siv. Flushing From Morning, To Noon + Sodding Night. Literally Dripping In Sweat Making My Self Conscious. Kicking Me Right In The Confidence Every Single Time. And You Know What I’ve Taken It On The Chin Thus Far. Or Should That Be My Sweaty Top Lip? Doing All The Things I’m Supposed To Do. To Ease Side Effects. Improve Quality Of Life. Acupuncture To Alleviate Brain Fog, Flushes + Aches. Diet To Keep My Energy Levels Up + Immune System Strong. Exercise To Tackle The Blues That Just Won’t Quit. Still Nothing Takes The Edge Off. Still I Cannot Feel Like I’m Losing Me. My Womanhood. My Femininity. And For The Sake Of 3% Benefit. Is It Worth Sacrificing My Quality Of Life. I Mean Little Bits Of The Above Here + There? I Sure As Shit Can Handle. But Not This. Have Been Having Tough Talks With My Team. They Aren’t Worried About Me Dropping Zoladex. Although I’m Worried My Mental Health Will Suffer. If The Cancer Were To Come Back Then It’s On Me Innit? Or Is It? So I’m Taking This Month Off. A Hormone Holiday. Test The Waters. Wishing It Wasn’t My Decision To Make.
  • Don’t Sweat It ✌🏻 Bonjour My Cancer Bambinos I Hope You’re Okay? Apologies For Radio Silence. If I’m Being Perfectly Honest It’s Because I’m Struggling. Not Only To Juggle The Beast That @GIRLvsCANCER Is Becoming. But Also In Managing My Mental Health. It’s Been Dark Over Here In All Honesty. Combo Of Trauma, Depression + Anxiety. Yeah Cancer Will Do That To You. Menopause An’ All. Will Talk More On This When I Find The Words. But Right Now I Wanted To Check In. Let You All Know Cogs Are Turning Behind The Scenes. And That Newness Is Imminent. Thanks For Your Patience With My Progress.
