Most days are better than others. But 2day having a cancer diagnosis & anxiety of living with it bring negative paralysis. I’m trying 2 ground myself. I never forget becos of 4-wkly implant & daily meds taken. It has 2 turn around so I’m fabulously flourishing. #ovariancancer

1. Lovely chat this morning with Alan from Clare FM. Look at me - butter wouldn't melt. 😂😂😂
2. Made a cake from a mix from Sostrene Grene. Was intrigued - very nice. Added dried fruit and smashed walnuts.
3. Laundry out. Beautiful day, crisp and bright.
