Breast Cancer

There will always times in our lives when we need to update our style and give ourselves a boost, no more so than during or after such a huge life experience as cancer treatment.

I understand how low and exhausted you feel during and after receiving treatment. I do believe it is very important for your well-being to always make an effort. Somehow a little bit of blusher, lip-gloss, and some well-chosen colour clothes can lift your spirits instantly.

Here’s my story. In February 2006 whilst visiting friends abroad to celebrate my daughters first birthday, I felt a lump above my left breast. Within ten days I was diagnosed with breast cancer. My world changed, the worries and concerns mounted up………

Would I lose a breast?
Would I be around to see my daughter grow up?
I don’t own any headscarves!

With a fully booked work diary and Dolly Parton tickets booked for April, I started to panic. I hate letting people down and really didn’t feel like explaining my situation. I just wanted to scream “WHY ME”?

The facts are that one in four women will get breast cancer. As long as it is detected early the survival rates are extremely high. The down side is the essential use of very aggressive treatments. During chemotherapy and radiotherapy I felt sick, extremely tired, very irritable and I put on weight. This was a time when all I could do was surrender, my diary became full of hospital appointments, and I could never predict when I was going to have a good day until I woke up in the morning.

Looking back, I found it hard to give myself a pat on the back for remaining positive. It was easier for me to surrender during all the treatments although the thought of picking myself up and getting life back to normal after all of it had finished was much more challenging than I’d imagined.

I suggest not only a new wardrobe, but also a fabulous holiday, because you deserve it!

I donate 10% of all my income to a breast cancer charity.

I want to help other women with breast cancer to look good and feel great. Please call me anytime.
