‘Don’t wish your days away waiting for better ones ahead’

Well, what a bloody whirlwind.

As most of you will know from following my/our journey, 4 extremely amazing gentlemen whom are very close to me (gentlemen probably being far too kind to describe them 😂) took upon the massive challenge of completing ‘Hadrian’s Wall - Coast To Coast’… 4 days and roughly 92 miles later, they achieved just that. They achieved something I never thought any of them could (no offence lads.. but all I ever see you do is eat curry and drink beer 😅).. and I am ridiculously proud and humbled that they did it for me. To cross that ‘finish line’ and see how broken you all were yet how much it meant to you all was inspiring and a moment I will never forget (although I bet you guys wish you could with your puss filled blisters 🤢 ha)

They managed to raise an astonishing £21,151 and it’s still climbing. It’s honestly bonkers & I know it will make a huge difference in research and help towards those living with Sarcoma like myself. Thank you to everyone who cheered them on and helped make it possible. I am eternally grateful.

Whilst the lads did their walk, my mum, sister, nephew, Indie and I all stayed in a huge house and just had the best week. We indulged in so much wine and chocolate and nice food and just had a ball with the kids & some much needed girly time. Some days I even forgot I actually had cancer. It even kept slipping my mind that the lads were sweating their tits off hiking the hills of the North West whilst I was in a sack swirling down slides with the kids at the play park (not great for neck tumours I may add 😅) or body boarding in the sea in my fancy new wetsuit haha. No, but the break away was very much needed.

Sometimes it’s so nice just to take a break from life and pretend everything is ‘normal’ and just breath in some different air (even in a very un-normal situation when you’re family are doing a 700000 mile trek to try find you life saving treatment 😂😂😂).

I just wanted to publicly thank my family for helping make the most wonderful memories and just making me feel so special and all round fabulous. You guys are da best!

Now back to the cancer life reality with 5 appointments over the next two week for check ups and scans 🤪.

From the beaches of Cumbria, to the waiting room of The Christie… my life is still great 🥰.
