A couple of my recent happy photos - yes I may of lost my hair ( now it's growing) left boob and so much more but I kept my nails and now after chemo finishing I've got hair and very slowly regaining my life still a way to go with radio reco etc but I've realised that I'm a fighter bc has taught me to appreciate what I took for granted xxx

    Hey lovely lady,

    Your pics made me smile, it is a milestone isn't it when you finish chemo, I had my last chemo just over 2 weeks ago and still have rads to go, what a feeling knowing we don't have to feel so sick anymore. We learn so much about ourselves going through bc don't we. I think our lives change forever and as much as it is a devistating process to go through for us and our loved ones we sure have a different outlook on life.  I wish you all the very best with the rest of your treatment and the future. Hugs and kisses your way.

    Cheers Jen ?? ?? ?? xx
