My Journey Update 2025
I can’t believe it’s been four years, since my Bowel Cancer Removal Surgery (Large intestine, subtotal colectomy - 09.02.2021) How grateful I am to be here with my family and friends 💕💕
My follow up check up is in May to see if the nasties have returned as we had a little scare in November 2024 where they found two nasties (sessile serrated lesions (SSL) and Villous Adenoma (Tubulovillous Adenmoa) the ones they found originally when this chapter began. They were removed and we will know more come May whether they have re returned aggressively or just the two trying to give to scare us. Hoping for the best 🤞🏼💖✨
This is your reminder if your body is telling you something is wrong or just feels off to have it checked out xx ✨
