Two of my contacts found
themselves in hospital on Valentines day, undergoing tests and desperate for pain relief.
Both of them have advanced breast cancer metastases, a stark reminder that there
is still no cure for this terrible disease once in the advanced stages.
Generally I keep a
lid on fear, but occasionally it manages to push its way up and interfere with
my thoughts. It probably serves as a reminder that it is all about now and
living life to the full.
I have completed my
list of top 100 life experiences (see the page tabs at the top). I have done
some amazing things and had some incredible experiences. I will add to these as
I work through my bucket list!
This years big achievement
for me will be the Breathless Breastless Project. The art exhibition goes from
strength to strength with lots of interest and support. Take a look at the Facebook Page, link below.
We have secured exhibition space for June in Aberdeen City centre. Art works,
including installations, photography, paintings and audio are being created by
a talented team. Breast cancer survivors are experiencing a cathartic journey, over
coming fears and helping to improve body image, self-esteem and healing. We
have secured some funding to help us with promotion and we hope to publish a
book, set up a website and tour the exhibition.
Please continue to support and share our project.https://www.facebook.com/pages/Breathless-Breastless-Project/164445467028874?fref=ts
