Em's Journey

Hi All,

I haven't been on here for some time - life sure is hectic!  

I am very pleased to report that I concluded my treatment on 12th January this year which was such a relief for me!  The radiation was nearly as bad as Chemo..... I was sooooo burnt!!!  I am healing nicely and am looking forward to discussing my reconstruction options with my breast surgeon and plastic surgeon.

I have recently put together a video of My Journey and I hope you all enjoy it.  It certainly has been a tough 9 months but I am feeling great now and just hope and pray I will be here for at least the next 50 years so I can enjoy my beautiful family and friends.  I am a very lucky girl!

This is the link to the video :)  I hope you can all open the below link with no problems!

Sending you all big hugs and hoping you are all keeping as well xx

    Hi Emma, Wow - What a fantastic video! You must have felt so empowered putting this together! It's so wonderful that you have share your ups and downs with not only your family and friends but with those who may need that little bit of your strength and hope to get through their own journey! Thank you -- Daina.

    Emma, how special is your video. I do regret that I didn't take more photos. I have only a few, but your video is a very special memory of your journey, and you have raised lots of money along the way. I'm glad you are now on the other side of your treatment, and can spend more time with your lovely family. Good luck. Love Chris xx
