We were ALL in it together 🧡🧡

Lighting my candle on for my two beautiful friends that I lost last year to , AML.

We went through so much together, I never, ever thought any of us wouldn’t make it. I miss you both so much. I hope you are together up there. 🧡🧡

Never forgotten. 🧡

ALL the love, always. 🧡

Good morning ALL

I don’t know about you, but I am welcoming February in with ALL the love. 🧡.
Did January feel like the longest month ever or was that just me? 😂

January has been a really tough month for me and the gang, both physically and mentally.
So, I’m excited to see what this fresh new month has to offer.

I’ve definitely felt like life hit the pause button when I heard the word in early Jan “incurable” and I’ve been pretty lost since then I can’t lie.
However, the only person that can change how I feel, and adapt to this situation is me. I’ve done it before and I’ll do it again.

One day at a time!

ALL the love, have a great day! 🧡🧡🧡

*trigger warning *

Hair today, gone tomorrow!

Firstly thank you ALL for your love and messages on my last post. I’ll never, ever stop being grateful! 🧡

Secondly, yesterday’s 2nd bag of this cycles chemo ALL went to plan. 👌🏻
It’s making me super tired so I slept through a lot of what was going on. As my mum always says, “well you must have needed it” 😴🥰

Finally, and in relation to the picture. 🙈. The hope was this particular chemotherapy, which is one I’ve not had before, would cause some thinning of my hair. But not total loss.
Looks like that may not be the case. I’m gutted and sad to start losing my hair again. Just as it was getting some length and I loved embracing my new curls. But of course in the grand scheme, it’s a small price to pay. 🧡

On a deeper level, I’m always trying to find hidden messages behind these things that happen. Stay with me here…..
But I look at this and think to myself the message here is that nothing is permanent, things change ALL the time. It’s how we adapt to those changes that make us stronger, it’s the choices we make 💪. I’m adapting by getting my fabulous wigs back out!
Get ready for multiple characters and personalities to re emerge! 😂😂

Happy Friday, have a great weekend.

ALL the love.

GREAT SCOTT it’s cold 🥶
Good Morning ALL!

Just wanted to drop in and say Hi. 👋 🧡

I know I’ve been quiet of late but it’s ALL been a bit crazy. It’s literally like I’ve gone back in time to when I was first diagnosed. ALL the hospital appointments and treatment. It’s ALL consuming, and I can’t lie, since relapsing again I have emotionally, and mentally, been really struggling to get my head around the situation.

But…….. I’m now on with my second cycle of this new chemotherapy, and the first cycle has reduced the Cancer cells!! How amazing is that, it’s ALL worth any level of discomfort and side effects!

So, I’m getting back in the Delorium (I don’t know how to spell that) and only heading one way, to the future!
Positive pants on, and crazy Doc Brown hair to boot, as you can see above! 😂

Hope you are ALL well and that 2024 is off to an amazing start for you.

ALL the love.

Firstly and most importantly!! I cannot thank you enough for ALL the love and support. I’m really pushing the boundaries aren’t I asking for your love for a third time 😂. Who saw this coming 👁️

I’ve been in bed for 3 solid days feeling vile. The chemotherapy I had last Tuesday, and am having again tomorrow, has wiped my body. Maybe it’s ALL it’s already had to deal with, but it’s not a happy bunny 🐰

I read ALL your messages, and appreciate them so much as I dip in and out as best I can right now. 🧡

Tomorrow is bag 3 of 4. And on Thursday I’ll be having my line fitted back in. It makes it easier to get bloods and give me my chemo, fluids etc. However, emotionally it’s that daily reminder in my arm that it’s ALL happening again. I’ve got some work to do on that mentally me thinks.

Health is everything! I sooo miss any kind of “normal life”, just the little things, that are actually everything. 🧡
One day at a time!

ALL the love. ### 🧡❤️🧡

*🧡Trigger warning Cancer related post🧡*

Firstly, I wanted to thank you ALL for your continued love and support as we try to adapt and navigate once again as a a family, to the return of my Cancer. 🧡

It’s been a really rough week since my admission to the Bexley wing. This Cancer is Acute, so grows fast, and aggressively.
My amazing team/second family could not have moved quicker for me. This is a new chemo that I have never had, and it’s kicking my ass a bit. But yesterday was bag 2 of 4, so we are halfway through for this cycle. 😘.
Please, please let it be working. 🙏

Last night I went to bed with such a grateful heart. So grateful that I have my family and friends ALL around me, and so grateful that the hospital, our INCREDIBLE are rooting for me and willing to try something new, despite ALL that I have already received over the last 3 years under their care.
Being ALL open and honest, there has been a very difficult conversation that this is no longer curable, but that the aim is to try and get back into remission.
So if that’s the path and plan, I’m ALL over it with bells, whistles and a cherry on the top 🍒

One day at a time. 🧡🧡

ALL the love

So, please join me over there if you can/would like to. 🧡

I have some incredible people in my life.
I love them ALL, and I am so grateful to them for the love, kindness and time they spend with me. They enrich my life more than words can say. 🧡

I’m ALL about the Gratitude! It is so powerful starting each day, and ending each night with a grateful heart 🧡

Who are you grateful for in your life?

Tell them, I guarantee it will make them smile! 😀

ALL the love & Happy Saturday!

Happy Tuesday!

Please remember there are ALL ways silver linings to be found, and little moments to smile! 😀

As I’m sat at the fracture clinic waiting to be seen for my broken arm, I clocked this sign and it made me smile and chuckle, probably a bit louder than I should 😂

C’mon, I mean what an utterly fabulous name for this department! 👌🏻

Keep looking for those signs 👀

ALL the love

Today was ALL ways going to be emotional.
3 years to the day when I heard those words.
“You have Cancer!”

But today is not about me. As today I lost another friend to the same disease.
That’s two of my friends who I have lost this year to Leukaemia. We were ALL on the journey together, I never thought one of us wouldn’t make it, let alone two.

I cannot express the importance enough of seizing the day & living in the moment!

Please also be aware of the signs & symptoms of Leukaemia. It is my mission, to keep sharing the below over & over again in their memory, and in the hope of saving someone else from this disease.

* Bone & Joint Pain
* Breathlessness
* Fatigue
* Fever
* Bruising & bleeding
* Repeated Infection’s
* Night sweats

My heart is hurting so much, and my body is trapped in absolute fear right now in this moment.

Please don’t waste your time. Surround yourself with the people you love and that make you happy. And please be aware of your body.
If you are not sure just get yourself checked out.

Time is so precious.

ALL the love.

Goals come in ALL sorts of different shapes & sizes don’t they! 😀

One of my Goals this year was to become more Independant again. So here is my first train journey to Birmingham, ALL by myself like a big girl 🤣

To many it may seem that this is just something easy, and that you would or could do this any day or everyday. But when you are rebuilding your life after Cancer, you are also rebuilding your confidence in the world, and in yourself.

Home & being near your hospital becomes your safety net. But slowly but surely it’s time to take steps away from that, and to live my new life to the fullest. 🧡

To think on this day 3 years ago I had no idea my body was 76% Cancer! And that the next day my life would change forever. 🧡

No one knows what tomorrow holds, so enjoy the gift of today, the present 🎁

ALL the love.

Liz 🧡❤️🧡

BUILD YOUR LIFE RAINBOW

I'm a Motivational Speaker, Qualified Coach & Singer. Mum to my two boys 8 and 14, wife to my husband of over 20 years. We met when I was 17, and we were married when I was just 20. I've always been on the stage in one form or another since I was just 13 years old. But, I started to lose my hearing 4 years ago, at the age of 35, which resulted in severe depression and crippling anxiety. I've found my way back through my own personal development work, working with, and helping others.

Currently based in Leeds, West Yorkshire, my aim is to inspire, motivate, and support people through their life’s journey. Not just because I know about some of the difficult challenges we face, but because I have experienced many of them first hand. This is not text book stuff, it’s real life. Tried and tested!

I don’t just want to support people with words. I want to really inspire them to go for what they want, or get rid of what they don’t. I want to help make a difference. I’m focused a lot on ACTION and ACCOUNTABILITY, because I know that everyone can BE, DO and HAVE anything they want, if they ACT. And, as they take those steps to make those changes, I’m the one in the background, just by their side reminding them that they have SOOO GOT THIS!!

I’m giddy and energetic, I laugh a bit like the fabulous Barbara Windsor, I love a G&T and I adore my family and friends. I don’t sugar coat problems or difficulties, I don’t dress stuff up to be something it’s not, I don’t fake who I am for the sake of social media. I’m me. Everyone is unique in this world, it’s what makes life interesting. I would love people to confidently and happily get back to or reach a point, where they can just be the amazing person they already are- and then some! As a stagey, slightly dramatic lovey, let me just conclude by saying: “Darling, this is no Dress Rehearsal!”
