Hi there lovelies
I’m new to this group and would like to send you all virtual hugs. Have recently had a 5th mammogram after my breast cancer op - mastectomy and reconstruction - in 2016. No worrying signs. They said. It’s a mild way of saying you’re in the clear and I am feeling incredibly lucky. Am an ex lawyer (worked in family law and mediation for over 35 years) and now I’m doing what I always wanted to do - write.
I’ve shared the story of my breast cancer journey together with some pretty amazing family secrets in my debut memoir No Place to Lie and have also recently started a YouTube channel Hello! It’s better to talk, where I’ve spoken about what it’s like having a nipple tattoo. Would be super grateful for you to pop over and have a peek - subscribing - all for free - would be amazing. (If you buy the book I’ll be over the moon too - it’s had brilliant 5 star reviews).
In a funny way, I put a lot of this life change down to my breast cancer - it taught me to seize life with both hands (even met my second husband two months after the big op) - and that life can be amazing.
Thank you for reading this and huge hugs again. Love and light. Helen.
