F**k you cancer!


So yesterday I got the results of my masectomy operation and the fantastic news is there was no cancer in either of my boobs! And the best bit of this whole experience, ringing Amy and Sam to tell them the news, I will never forget that feeling.

I’ve just got to have 5 days of radiotherapy as a belt and braces approach in a few weeks time but that’s it, I can start to look forward. And on that note I bombarded my consultant with a very important list of questions littered with I’m sorry.... I know these are silly but......

Can I go on holiday after my treatment has finished? 

To which she said yes absolutely you need one.  My consultant said I need one so I’m taking that as a holiday is a necessity and that Boris will be happy with my rationalisation. I’m off in July, everything is booked and I cannot wait. 

When can I go in my mums hot tub? 

Should I continue with my sugar free diet? 

And yes of course.....

What about alcohol?

To which she said my cancer was definitely not caused by alcohol. Hormonal breast cancer has a link to alcohol only and I should definitely reintroduce things that make me happy within reason. I am going to take the within reason seriously but I am going to have the odd glass of champagne and the odd glass of red with my meal. But my days of dancing on the tables, flashing my boobs (not quite the same affect now) and waking up with hangovers are gone. 

Stop smirking you lot I mean it. I can hear you thinking it won’t be long and she’ll be back on it partying hard. We’ll see! I do have an appointment with a glass of champagne in a few weeks when my radiotherapy has happened.

For now I’m just going to bask in the fact I don’t have to constantly worry anymore. My naughty boob is condemned to the bin. I am cancer free!!!!
