About Me
Let's Get Acquainted!
Nice to meet you!
This blog came out of from my experiences in my cancer journey. February 1, 2021, my life took a major turn and rather than 2021 being my "pregnancy year" it immediately became "all hands on deck to beat cancer" year. Stage 3a, ER+/PR+/HER2- quickly became a part of my everyday conversation and existence.
Shortly after settling into the shock of the diagnosis, I quickly found purpose in it. I've always felt that a primary reason for my existence is to help others. I realized that my cancer diagnosis is yet another opportunity to do exactly that. I knew that I needed to "lean in" to the challenge ahead of me...no, not the cancer, but things like accepting help from others, accepting that I can't plan everything, and slowing down. My hope is that by sharing my journey, I'll be able to help others feel like they're not alone and recognize their own strength. I also hope this blog serves as a means to connect individuals to others that are a part of this "club" that none of us actually wanted to be a part of. I've found immeasurable aid in the community of fighters and survivors. Let's help each other out through words of encouragement and sharing some of the tips and tricks that have worked for us!
Thanks for joining me :)
