Stop this ride....I want to get off !!!

  • A year on

    I said at the end of the last entry that I hoped I wouldn’t have to update my blog as I’d come to the end of my treatment, but I just wanted to pop a quick note on the end, just to say that a year on since the start of treatment I just had my first mammogram and ultrasound since the operation in April and everything was fine. I am obviously over the moon and very very thankful.

  • I can't believe it but I'm finally stopping the ride....It's time to get off!!!
