April 21st Monday.

4 years ago on this date, I was told I had cervical cancer. My whole world came crashing down. 5 months after losing my dad, I was told I had cancer too. As soon as you hear the words 'your have cancer' you automatically assume you're going to die. I cried my eyes out. I was devastated. 
You can't understand how it feels to hear them words unless you've been through it. Its devastating. My cancer was caught early because I went for my smears on time. If I hadn't of been for my smear, I would probably be dead already. Please ladies, make sure you go for your cervical screening. Its so important and can save your life. 
My life seems like a series of unfortunate events, my dad passed away, I get told i have cancer, then my son dies. Its tragic.
I had surgery to remove my cancer, but they had to do a full hysterectomy and they took 19 lymph nodes to see if my cancer had spread. Luckily it hadn't spread or I wouldn't be here today to tell you about it. I had 22 staples going up my stomach and I was in so much pain after my surgery. It was horrible. I have a massive scar going up my stomach now as a reminder of what I went through. I'm just glad I'm still here.
Life keeps throwing shit at me and I just keep getting back up on my feet. I'm a fighter for sure. I'm a stong woman and I refuse to quit.
Anyway, its bank holiday today and it's raining, how typical. 
Looks like a day indoors. I'm going Inflato tomorrow with my mum then I'm going out Wednesday with my boys, I'm looking forward to that. I love going out with my children. My children give me the strength to continue with life, even on the days where I think I can't go on anymore. My strength comes from them.
