Friday was another day I feel compelled to write about! When Danni first suggested writing a blog about my Cancer Journey, from our different perspectives, (it's been pointed out that I say OUR Cancer Journey - so I'm mindful about changing my language) we agreed we would write about the good, the bad and the ugly of the situation! But over the past few months, whilst going through Chemo I haven't felt able to write, talk or think clearly most of the time! So I'm aware that I'm showing a one-sided view of my cancer experience but that is all I'm capable of right now, this is progress so I can only add, a lot can be 'said' with silence!
it's only 48 hours since my fab day but I'm already finding it hard to convey the happiness of the day so I'm going to paste a text I sent on the day which I hope captures the simple joy!
"I've had a lovely afternoon in Windsor shopping with Lin - 1st shopping trip in 5 months! The sun was shining 😎 I had me Pat Butcher earrings on, that matched me Primark t-shirt and I didn't give a damn about me muffin top! Had money in my pocket (treat from Danni) and bought a pair of black trousers on sale and a top in H&M - gotta love a bargain - if yer name is Jac! Then I brought on a pair of THE Sparkliest pair of Sliders in the world - had MY name written all over them - no actually they say on the sole 'love your sole' which is much cuter! Almost as cute as that ceramic little zebra plant-holder I got!!😊 Sal it's the little things in life ain't it 😘🌈🌸🦄"
Well reading this back I'm a bit disappointed that it reads rather 'meh'! All I can say is it's a shame you're not in my head cos I had the Best day - it was fun and simple and light-hearted ..... and prospective is everything!
