46, ovarian cancer

In the beginning, the world slowed down to half pace while I kept going at normal speed. A good loud scream in private brought things back into perspective very quickly. I realised I had two beautiful sons to raise and I was going to do it. I had to draw on my inner strength, and that of my family and friends whose thoughts and actions and prayers were invaluable. My faith was a wonderful support to draw on. Life now is more enjoyable - nothing seems so important that I need to raise my stress levels, and life is for living with joy.
