I decided to start this blog because I needed an outlet. Somewhere to share the thoughts that keep me awake at night, the emotions that sometimes feel too big to contain and the reality of navigating anticipatory grief while watching my mum battle cancer.
The most frustrating and, if I'm honest, heartbreaking thing about this whole situation is that Mum's end-of-life prognosis isn't actually because of the cancer itself, but because of a bowel blockage caused by scar tissue from the original surgery to remove her tumour.
I first considered starting a blog back in October 2025, when my mum was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer.
