Hey, I’m Anna, and I am a Breast Cancer Survivor!

Sounds a bit surreal really, like that statements not actually about me…

Because I’m also a mum. A mum to two beautiful, hilarious, kind & clever children, and Russell the Jack Russell; a ball obsessed dog that could make the pope swear.

I’m the eldest of three daughters, the sister of two strong, independent mother fucking women who I’m incredibly proud of, and the Aunty to two wonderful, beautiful nephews.

I’m a small business owner. I’m the friend to many wonderful women. I’m the hilarious, whitty, sarcastic one, the lightweight, the organiser… did I mention modest? They… well they are, the most funny, caring, compassionate & supportive women I’ve ever had the opportunity of being surrounded by…

And this is my story, my diary of events from the very beginning until the end of my treatment. It’s not a pity party, or sympathy stop.

Writing has always been an anxiety outlet for me; so this is an opportunity for me to express how I’m feeling, and to share my experience with others, whether you’re going through it yourself, or know someone who is.

So here goes!
