  • Since my breast cancer diagnosis back in late October, I haven’t really cried. Losing my hair made it all a bit real though and I did shed a few tears on a few occasions that day. Shaving my head was a hard decision but losing the femininity that long hair brings was devastating. Everyone has been amazing saying how beautiful I look with a bald noggin but it’s been a hard adjustment not only for me and my husband (who now rock the same do!) but my daughters who are 6 and (almost) 2 years old. A big shout out to 2 amazing women! Melissa at Total Lash and Brow Studio for always making my lashes look amazing and Stephanie at Lux Hair Studio for cutting and styling my wigs! Thank you so so much to both of you for making me look and feel normal. Much love to you both 💕💕

  • Today is officially one month on from first finding my breast lump. Unfortunately it was confirmed that I have grade 3 Triple Negative Breast Cancer. As grade 3 is the most aggressive and triple negative breast cancer doesn’t respond to any of the oestrogen, progesterone or HER2 treatments, I will start my chemo treatment next Wednesday which will consist of a 5 hour chemo session every 2 weeks for the next 4 months to ensure they blast any cancer cells that might remain in my body. Given triple negatives recurrence rates I’ll be having 3-4 weeks after my chemo to rest before having a double mastectomy. As triple negative is linked to the BRCA1 mutation it also attacks your ovaries so the next step once I’ve recovered from my mastectomy will be to undergo a full hysterectomy to make damn sure this cancer has basically nowhere to return. 
I’m 33 years old, a wife and a mummy to my beautiful 6 year old and 18 month old girls. CANCER DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE! 
I haven’t been dealt this shitty card to sook. I might have had to let it take my boobs but I definitely won’t let it take my life. I have too many amazing, beautiful people to live for and grow old with for this to be the end of my story. I truly believe thing happen for a reason and my reason is to blab to as many people who will listen and to just tell my story. My cancer was possibly only there for 2 weeks before I found it! It hadn’t been there long. My breast surgeon is amazed I found it myself! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE check your boobies girls!!! PLEASE!!! Set a reminder in your calendar for the first of every month, jump into your morning shower and take 5 minutes to do a thorough check. It could save your life. 📸 Photo Credit: @kellystephensphotography

  • I’m always behind the camera and rarely in front. This photo is no different as I manage to still stay in my comfort zone behind the lens in this quick ‘lift selfie’.
Heading off to the ceremony after a fun morning with the girls full of champagne and lots of laughs!
