No smoke without fire

What are your favourite / funniest predictive text swaps?

Every time I write 'hope' it changes to 'hippie' (naturally!)

- Hippie for more perfect days in the woods, building canopies & making fire, just like we did last summer..

- Hippie for relaxation & creativity..

- Hippie for great health..

 

I didn't really make it clear in my last post, but I am now completely free from breast cancer. I had caught it super early and surgery was the cure for me just a month after diagnosis. I decided to mix holistic treatment, (yoga, mindfulness & the use of essential oils) with conventional adjuvent treatment in the form of advised chemotherapy & radiotherapy to minimise my chances of a reoccurance.

 

Sometimes it's hard to know if you're making the right decision, especially if you're generally pulled towards a more natural approach to healing, but cancer is harsh and I'm young, and killing it with fire (so to speak!) felt the right thing to do.

It's a very personal choice and one which you, after analysing your own personal survival statistics shouldn't be coaxed into by others.

 

Here is another self -portrait with assisted focus by my lovely man, Simon as the smoke was pretty strong.
