Bouncing Back & Following My Dreams
Not quite
Unfortunately this project was not successful.

To further my education and start my own business. Post the passing of my parents and a minor set back having skin cancer on my left breast.

It’s never to late to follow your dreams.

My parents held me when I took my first breath and I ensured I held them individually when they took their last breath.

This journey I walked with them both as they decent into a dementia and stroke related decline changed myself and my mindset. 

I didn’t hesitate to give up my career, as their only child to ensure they was well cared for till the end.

They both died on the 25th March at 6.20pm exactly two years apart.

My dad passed first and I truly believe the significance of the time and date was that my dad came to collect my mum.

I decided you have one life and the sands of time are passing so quickly.

I wanted to embark on something that I had always dreamed of.

To set up my own beauty therapy company.

However I have just had a minor set back to my dream. I am having a lumpectomy next month to remove a cancer lesion on my left breast.

Life only gives you want you are strong enough to cope with.

Post treatment I wish to study anatomy and physiology and beauty therapy and buy equipment to set up as a mobile therapist.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for your support.
