Hi guys......................After 9 months of hell and kicking my own backside and fighting my cancers like a mad woman, I thought about stopping treatment, giving up and just wanting to die and get it over and done with. Anyone who has read my blogs will know how much I've fought this, how much I have relied on having a sense of humour and how positive I have been.
