A life less Ordinary

Once again I find myself starting a blog apologising for the lack of blog posts!

Truth is...Yes life has been busy. However I've also not been feeling myself. Someone described it as feeling flat!

Even by my standards the last few months has been MANIC! So I guess I can be excused for being a bit tired 

Decembeard ambassador
JFM digital campaign ambassador (A HUGE honour and when December is finished worthy of a whole blog post of its own)
Speaking for Convatec @ ASCN conference and multiple patient events
Coverage in multiple newspapers & websites
Decembeard pictures feature on L'Oréal Paris website....and I'm sure alot more that has blurred into this insane journey!

However it's days like today that consistently humble me. Today Nuclear races allowed us to set up a Decembeard dip. All money raised being donated to Decembeard.

Anyway..with most of my blogs they start as one idea...then turn into something else!
Id like to use this blog to acknowledge all the people I have had the honour of meeting this year.

Far too many to name!  However, there are a few people that I am especially lucky to of met this year. They will always remain very special to me for many many reasons.

Perhaps it's as I turn 37 in a few days? Getting sentimental in my old age?

But when I was diagnosed at 28 I didn't think I'd make my 30th birthday.  Over the last 9 years I have had lots of new experiences that were only part of my journey because of that crossroad. This has included meeting people I would never of met unless my life had taken this huge swerve!

I won't embarrass the hero's, the fighters, the humble survivors and the #weirdos I am referring to, but as they read this blog.... I hope they know who they are.
