I just wanted to send a message to say hi and that I’m still here, but that I won’t be updating on this site for a while.

I never looked forward to writing these posts. It always felt like such a chore. I felt like I had to be strong for those who were listening and following along my journey. But it’s exhausting talking about yourself like you’re a science experiment, giving everyone the results. 

Well instead, I started writing in a journal everyday. It’s been really helpful to process my emotions. It’s like putting them out there in the world makes me accept it all more. It makes me feel better talking about everything, letting people see a snapshot into my life as a metastatic breast cancer thriver. I don’t want to think of myself as a patient because I’m in this for the long haul. This is my journey and I need to share it in a more peaceful way. 

I have been and will continue to share on Facebook and Instagram. Please come listen there if you would like.

Much love for staying with me this long. I’m almost at the two year mark 🙌 💕.
