The Struggles of Infertility: DEIVF Round 1, IVF Attempt No.2

I can’t wrap my head around the last month or so… It’s been challenge after challenge. Stress after stress. The past two-three weeks have been really really shit to be honest. I feel like a failure, that I’ve let my husband, our families and our friends down. I know so many of you were rooting for us and we appreciate…

Continuing To Raise Awareness For Endometriosis

I try to raise awareness about Endometriosis every March, and apologies that I’m a little (ok, a lot) late this year. Truthfully, it doesn’t matter which month you raise awareness for a chronic illness. I’ve shared a portion through-out the past eight or so years, so I feel I’m some-what doing my bit.  For those who don’t know my back…

Finding Out I Have Endometriosis, 7 Years On

Now who remembers this blog post? It’s an oldie, and when I first had surgery to confirm I had Endometriosis. This was back in 2015.

As some may know, I was…

As only my family and some of my close friends know, I just want to get my story out into the digital world. So here it goes… *deep breaths* Last year in January we went…

What It’s Really Like Living With A Stoma Bag

I had a major operation for Endometriosis at the end of June which led me to have a stoma bag for a year. I wanted to share the reality of living with a stoma bag with you. Some days can be tough, especially when it causes discomfort and is weighing down on the stoma. But other days, it’s absolutely fine…

My Hair Loss Journey

I wasn’t going to post these photos, then I thought fuck it, life’s too short and I could potentially help others going through the same battle. I started losing my hair early June, strands and strands would fall out when washing it, brushing it or styling it. I thought nothing of it at the time. Back in April, I had…
