  • Rainbows and rainclouds

    I have been told I have bowel cancer and it is not curable. I may live a few more years if i respond to non curative chemo - or I may not. Making a blog seems like a good way for me to see how my views and attitudes to life change - or don't change ^-^

  • Losing my best friend, my mum

    Why is life so unfair. I'm 19 years old I'm way too young to lose my mum. I'm struggling to come to terms with my mum dying from terminal lung cancer she only has weeks/months left. Cruel world.
