A year between these two photos.

Oh, how much life can change.

I look at her in 2024 and she feels like a stranger.

Just a dream of another me.

She had no idea what was coming.

No early warning signs.

Life was humming along nicely....

What would I communicate to her if I could?

Hang on.

Hang on to LIFE.

Be grateful that you lead a healthy life. This will help you recover better than if you had poor health. It sucks that there is no medal for a lifetime of moderation but bad luck - it makes no sense - keep eating your good food, moving your body, meditating.

Don't ask if it makes a difference.

Be grateful for a rich spiritual life. Those inner resources will be your compass in the darkness. You will see the world with different eyes. You don't need to explain it to anyone. You know it can't be explained and never will.

Be grateful for your incredibly supportive family and friends. You have so many tears of gratitude coming! You will hold others with a new level of preciousness. You will be in awe at the love and support around you. Others are going to feed you, literally and figuratively, and you are going to let them (finally! πŸ™„πŸ˜†) You can rest in that, take refuge and know you are loved.

Trust yourself, girlfriend.

Trust like your life depends on it.

Because it does.

You are about to shake off a whole unnecessary layer of who you thought you were and things are going to get very wobbly.

Unfortunately, this is not a weekend workshop on transformation.

This will require endurance.
It won't neatly be 'over' in 12 months' time.

So hang on, my sacred, unprepared friend.

Hang on.

This is me after 9 months of almost constant cancer treatment.

I certainly have nailed the cancer 'look' πŸ˜†

That hairless, sunken, depleted look πŸ™Œ



Strangely I still walk through the oncology ward and feel sorry for all the people suffering, without including myself in the experience.

I still don't feel like I have cancer.

I have to remind myself that I have spent weeks on an ONCOLOGY ward. Wow.

You will never hear me say 'my cancer'... it just isn't mine.

It's has a 'visitor' sticker on it.
Not a permanent resident.

That's my view.

I never knew resilience was my super skill.

That I will do ANYTHING to stay alive.

I didn't know I was this strong.

This clear.

Maybe we all are when tested to the core.

I've now done the big three - surgery, chemo and radiation.

In the background of this I've done a lot more....

Everyday I ask God "what do you need of me?"

Clear old wounds βœ”οΈ
Change diet βœ”οΈ
Speak my truth βœ”οΈ
Forgive others βœ”οΈ
Sincerely pray βœ”οΈ
Change my thinking/expectations βœ”οΈ
See life differently βœ”οΈ
Express emotions βœ”οΈ
Relax my nervous system βœ”οΈ
Fry myself in a hyperthermia machine βœ”οΈ

I listen intently to whatever message I get as to what needs healing within me - at every level.

I listen, then I act.

No questions asked.

It has been nine months of radical change.

And I'm tired.

My bone marrow is tired.

Time to stop and rest 😴 😌

Time for whatever is next.

I seem to have hit a new health low point this week πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

Not a goal I was aiming for.

My body is speaking loud and clear.

And when I look in the mirror at the pale, poisoned me, even I get a fright at how sick I look.

It is a little surreal.

My immune system has zero-ed out.

Literally.

I have no neurophils, low platelet levels and low haemoglobin.

Chemo knocks off your white blood cells so this isn't a surprise but having been told I could bleed to death from a small cut or that ANY infection right now could be fatal is pretty scary.

This was all discovered because I woke up with heart grabbing chest pain and ended up in ED getting a CT scan looking for embolisms or heart damage.

Thankfully results came back clear.

At the beginning of chemo, I had asked my body to show me a sign if things were not good.

It was during that heart tightening moment I made the decision to cancel round four of chemo.

No more.

I asked the angels to finish the chemo work. My heavenly cancer killing team are going to have to up their game....

This physical body is exhausted and can't do anymore.

So Friday saw me getting a blood transfusion, platelet transfusion, antibiotics, steroids and blood bacteria readings.

They wanted me to stay in hospital but I refused. Hospitals are not healthy places in my opinion, they exist to make it easier for the staff to get measurements from you. Yes, they save lives in critical moments. But if you want to improve your immune system, my attitude is, get your treatment and go home to your own bed. Uninterrupted sleep and your snoring dog will be more healing than four-hourly blood pressure tests.

This earned me the affectionate acronymΒ  of WLDP from my oncology nurse -
Well-Liked-Difficult-Patient - he says I cause him more paperwork πŸ˜‚

Good.

I told him I need some autumn leaf therapy πŸ˜‰ - winter sunshine, garden staring and naps in front of the fire.

I'm sure the next blood test will show evidence of its effectiveness.

Got my first tattoo - a very fashionable dot on my abdomen that lines up the radiation beams.

Radiation treatment feels like a wellness spa compared to chemo.

They even play relaxing music.

The only side effect is fatigue, which in my case is my permanent state at the moment.

My prayer going into this was 'accuracy'.

The machine that delivered the radiation was called 'Accuray'.

Love the signs.

Meet the Red Devil.

That’s doxorubicin β€” a chemo drug so strong, your body can only handle six rounds of itΒ ever. It’s tough stuff, with possible serious side effects, especially on the heart and kidneys.

Two weeks ago, I kicked off a new chemo cycle. It’s a bit intense: five days in hospital, every three weeks, for four rounds total.

Last week, I couldn’t even write about it… just thinking about chemo made me gag 🀒

So let's change the subject..

Let’s talk about something amazing instead.

The response to my GoFundMe has been nothing short of incredible.

I was lying in my hospital bed watching the donations roll in, and I was blown away, repeatedly saying ’thank you’ and crying.

So many people β€” friends, family, even total strangers β€” stepped up to support.

So thank you. Seriously.

We look happy because we've just said goodbye to the oncologist I have had for the past 6 months.

Recently, I have been walking out of these appointments and turning to my loved one and saying, "He doesn't expect me to live."

πŸ˜”πŸ˜”πŸ˜”

It's hard to work with someone who has a different vision than you do.

Recognising that my relationship with Oncology is going to be considerably important and long one, I realised I deserve a supportive partnership.

One that doesn't think it ambitious to want to stay alive.

In Australia, we have a group of doctors who specifically look at rare cancers. It is called the Australian Rare Cancer Portal.
This oncologist spoke about it but complained that it took 1.5 hours to complete the referral.

Maybe he had done the cost-benefit analysis on my life and decided it wasn't worth it βš–οΈπŸ€¨ So it never happened.

At my first consultation with Dr. New Oncologist, I asked if he would complete it? "Of course!" he said unhesitatingly.

πŸŽ―β›³οΈ Correct answer 🎰

πŸ™ Thank you, my wonderful community ❀️ for helping me find my new Onco!

Perth is a small town. We are all super sleuthy. Well done.

He is intelligent, kind and even funny 😲

Go figure.

BTW ... I got online to research this Rare Cancer Portal. It's a ONE PAGE form the doctor has to complete 😑😑 Grrrrh..

I have never been afraid to go first.

Particularly if I believe strongly in something.

Yesterday, I went first πŸšΆβ€β™€οΈπŸ’‰πŸš«πŸ¦€

It's kind of funny because 5 years ago, I stood in the never-line πŸ’‰

The main difference here is that I am CHOOSING to be a guinea pig.

Not coerced πŸ˜’

I am part of a phase 1 clinical trial based in Adelaide for a cancer vaccine.

Go the Aussie scientists!! πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί

I truly believe this is the future of cancer treatment.

Individualised.
Intelligent.
Immune system based.

A type of immunotherapy developed by https://vaxine.net/ where they take a piece of the patient's tumour and create a cancer vaccine that is designed to induce T cells to kill the tumour.

In other words, they are trying to up-level my T cells so that they recognise and respond to the cancer.

Unfortunately, cancer often hides from our immune system, so T cells don't step in and fight abnormal growths. In fact, cancer can even fool our immune system into cooperating with the growth.

πŸ˜– Nasty.

My fallopian tubes were the tissue sample used in the trial, which feels rather significant as they have historically been the place of new life, and now, they may save mine and be MY new lifeβœ¨οΈπŸ€Έβ€β™€οΈπŸ™

I am the first person with HGESS cancer to do the trial, and my prayer is that it is successful so that every woman with this rare cancer has a hopeful treatment path.

It's an experiment.

I'm an experiment.

Let it be a wonderful one βœ¨οΈπŸ™ŒπŸ€ž

This has been one of my little golden discoveries since this cancer journey began.

Hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) involves going into this pressure chamber for over an hour to receive pure 100% oxygen via a mask.

Best thing is it's only 10 minutes away in Parkerville!
https://www.facebook.com/hillshyperbarics

Since surgery 2 weeks ago, I have been having regular HBOT to flood my body with oxygen and speed up recovery time (apparently up to 70% faster!).

I certainly feel the benefits of it after each session. It also supported me to optimise sensitivity and build energy prior to each chemo round.

It was the only thing that cleared the brain fog.

So, in short, my recovery has been wonderful πŸ˜„ Spoilt with oodles of support from family and friends πŸ™ getting plenty of rest, love, supplements and sunshine.

Powering myself up before the next step in my healing journey.

Disclaimer: I will never ever know what caused this cancer,Β  what healed this cancer or what could heal another person's cancer. I am just sharing my own direct experience.

I'm trusting my path is right for me πŸ›£

If you have cancer, then my best advice is to trust yourself and ignore the rest. Lots of people will have lots of advice. Truth is, there isn't a person, doctor or healer on this planet that can guarantee an answer to the question "what will cure me?"

For everyone experiencing cancer... I wish you love and miracles ✨️

πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ©·πŸ•―πŸ•―πŸ•―πŸ•―

They worked BEFORE I went to surgery, DURING and AFTER. Incredible ✨️

I have been showered in miracles 😭😭

My surgeon rang me twice before surgery.

The first time, he asked me if I consented for him to remove a large section of bowel if required. It would mean a permanent stoma bag and I would never p**p normally again.

I said yes.

He rang again and said that my neutrophils (white blood cells) taken 2 days ago, were too low and I might not be able to have surgery.

My heart dropped πŸ₯Ί

He said he would take another blood test at the hospital.

Menwhile, I kept seeing 'wellness' running through my blood with everyone's love and candles surrounding me πŸ₯Ή

Two anxious hours later, the results showed that not only were they up, but they were better than they had been for months! πŸ₯³πŸ’ͺso I got the green light!!! πŸ”ͺ

Miracle #2 ....Surgery only took 2 hours!
If you remember, that first hope-stealing, rude surgeon told me that surgery would be 7 hours.

Miracle #3...... no stoma bag was required!
I'm a regular, crapping girl!!! πŸ’©πŸš½πŸŽ‰

Miracle #4..... and THE BEST.... he got all the tumour πŸ™ŒπŸ’«πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ˜­

Admittedly, we won't know if there are any tiny bits left inside until the next PET scan (and I still have bone metastasis to deal with) but...put it this way, I don't have a bowling ball cancer inside me anymore! πŸ’ƒ

He did some very tricky surgery.... bladder adhered to the cervix, bowel adhered to uterus... so pretty bloody amazing work!!

Miracle #5..... no blood transfusions required (as expected) and I am already out of ICU! (was told to expect 3 days)

I truly and wholeheartedly believe that the power of love... human and divine...
created these miracles.

I am simply crying in the deepest gratitude.

Thank you, my beautiful people 😭😭😭

Boy? or Girl? 😜 Apparently, I am the equivalent of 20 weeks pregnant.

This baby is going straight to Pathology.

At 2pm today I will be cut open from my solar plexus to my p***c bone to remove as much of this tumour as they can. This includes all my girl bits - ovaries, uterus, cervix and top half of the va**na.

As much as I am apprehensive and sad, I am very clear that nothing that really matters can ever be cut away.

In the spirit of connecting, I am asking for your help.

If you could take a moment to connect with your heart and send some prayer, love and healing energy, I would be eternally grateful πŸ™

I know many of you are already doing this. Your messages of support have been incredibly nurturing to my peace.
Re-reading them helps me to harness my courage, calm me down and trust - there are bigger forces at work here.

I would REALLY love if you could light a candle for my successful surgery and smooth recovery. If you'd like, share a photo of your candle below, seeing your candles, will bring me comfort πŸ₯ΉπŸ™βœ¨οΈπŸ’•

Please share my vision of the cancer being easily identifiable and removable. I have been imagining all the cancer cells lighting up with bright blue dye. Peeling away from my body like a peanut coming out of its shell.

I would also appreciate a prayer of peace for my family, as they are going through so much at the moment.

Thank you so much for all the tremendous offerings of love you have given me.

I feel your presence.
I love you all 🩷🩷🩷

Today, my prayers were heard ✨️

For the first time in 5 months, I had someone go through my scan results and explain the nature of the cancer.

I cried at the simple kindness and respect this man showed me. He answered all my questions without rushing or belittling me.

Praise for King Edward Memorial Hospital!

I also saw a dietitian, and for the first time, someone actually asked about my mental health.

It's incredible that no one has done this before.

I was given an appointment with the surgeon THIS AFTERNOON 😲

Talk about same day service!

I AM BOOKED FOR SURGERY NEXT FRIDAY!!!!! πŸ™Œ πŸ”ͺπŸ₯³

It will be super high risk, and I expect to be in ICU and hospital for at least 5 days.

I choose it gladly.

They might not be able to get it all out, but they will give it their best shot, and that is all I ask.

When they asked me about my support network today, I cried (happy tears) and tell them the truth.... I am blessed with an incredible, powerful support network that holds me when I fall, that reminds me of my own strength and one that believes in my capacity to defy the odds.

The magnitude of love that surrounds me is phenomenal.

THANK YOU SO MUCH πŸ’“

Surgeons should be made to go to Compassion School ❀️

No fat pay check until you prove you can remain human and emotionally responsive under pressure.

It wasn't a very pleasant meeting with the surgeon last Friday πŸ˜•

Being told exactly how he expected me to die was cruel and unnecessary.

And in front of my mother and daughter 😑

Although he spoke in a tone of authority about my demise, I didn't believe him.

Instead, I felt my angels, dragons and ancestors around me. I know I am fully supported to be here and in perfect timing.

He isn't God.
He isn't the authority of my body.
He hasn't read my divine contract this lifetime.

Without any delicacy, he told me that he didn't think surgery was technically possible. It was too risky, too complicated and not worth it, as I would die anyway.

Yep, a real powerhouse of hope.

He agreed to do an investigative procedure on Tuesday to assess the bladder/bowel involvement. After that, he will make a decision.

After that, I hope to sack him and get a human doctor with God's hands.

Needless to say, I will be getting a second opinion.

And third, if I have to.

I need to have a medical team that commits to doing their best to keep me alive.

Maybe even with an attitude of kindness.

I don't expect it to be sugar coated, but using the term 'palliative' feels premature and assumptive – let's focus on my current treatment plan.

If I can do difficult, then meet me there.

Bring your knife.
