On the 1st of April I faced my second surgery
I have returned home after my second cancer surgery.
We had 19 Blake malignant tumors removed and left modified radical neck dissection and the remaining thyroid removed.(I have no thyroid left).
One pesky malignant tumor remains in my voice box which will remain until my treatment starts with nuclear medical team.
I also have been diagnosed with post concussion syndrome due to apparently a nasty fall in Sydney which broke my front lobal bone in two not to mention I broke my nose.
Both will require plastic surgery once I have recovered enough.
Who would have thought bubbles🥂long ball gown, Highheels & rain would cause such damage.
And I have no memory of this fall 🤭
The good news in my VOICE is Returning 🎤
This surgery was 100% an amazing surgery compared to my previous one and I made the right decision choosing a private surgeon.
Being home in my wellness corner my sanctuary is giving me much needed respite from all of the above.
In less than two weeks my first grandchild is going to be earth-side and this glamma (a name I have chosen for myself) needs to build up her strength so I can be there for my baby girl.
I am so excited for this
To all my family friends and supporters
I love you very much thank you for being my strength when I had none, for wiping my tears, and making sure that trolley I was on was whipped into surgery real quick so I couldn’t escape. Jaye Em 😂
For cuddling me holding me and reminding me how far I have come 🖤
on the 21st of May I will have a PET scan to see if the cancer has spread to other parts of my body .I have already had a scan on my brain and I am so relieved no cancer lives there.
I will very soon start further treatments radio iodine therapy and radiation to target the pesky remaining tumor that is clinging to my voice box.
I know a terminal illness is incredibly difficult to navigate but I am determined to do everything I can to continue my life saving work and live my life with determination pride and with gratitude 🖤
