Reasons to be cheerful - part 1!

March 2, 2019

I have had a wonderful day - yet another one!! Since my visitation from the 'small c' I've had several of them. I am 'living my best life' which probably sounds both bizarre and bollocks, yet is my best truth!!  

Today, Danni and I went to Maggie's, a centre for people living with cancer, founded by Maggie Keswick Jencks and built around her belief that people should not “lose the joy of living in the fear of dying"! Absolutely fabulous place with loads going on, both practically, creatively and holistically. Really informative, helpful and welcoming! I admit I was nervous about going, it felt like a final admission of my new reality, like once I walked across the threshold there would be no going back, so I hesitated, the procrastinator that I am, as if I had some say in the matter, like there was choice to make!

 But I'm glad I did go as I'm sure Maggie's will be an invaluable support for both me and the family........ I may have even found my first fundraiser challenge - abseiling down London's 4th tallest skyscraper, Leadenhall Building, standing 225m tall!! Er no, scrub that! Having looked at it online there is not a chance I'll be doing that challenge! I think I'll just accept the cancer challenge for now, one day at a time!
