Samantha, 26, passed away this morning! I am furious and hate cancer – it is so unfair and until now I was hoping for Sama’s miracle …. breastcancer isn’t easy, isn’t pink – today, it is pitch black!

I’ve got my period! – I thought for a long time, if I shall post this one, but there are two reasons that convinced me.

Berlin – my first business trip!
I am both – over the moon and completely exhausted!! Overwhelmed by everything, my brain cries for help and simply gives up after half a day. Babysteps – and this was a big one towards normality!

Out now – our second podcast episode!!
Who do want to reach with our podcast though?!?
Everyone – old, young, sick, healthy, vegan, gay, blond, blind, bald, brave, shy, stamp collectors, CEOs and hippies…. cancer is everyone’s business and so far, it seems that we are leaving footmarks in all different walks of life!

How do I tell my friends and family that I have been diagnosed with a life threatening illness?!? Yep, you choke just reading it, so would I…. in today’s podcast we speak about our experiences…
I would have rather been pregnant with child number three, but cancer entered my life instead and that’s the news I shared.

Challenges – isn’t life full of challenges?!? Mine is right now, but I am adding another one, as I love them! The spice of life! Cancer and it’s aftermaths is playing a more and more minor character, but it led me to look after myself more!

What a day – what a child free day and yet, I rush through it in a blast…. yes, I could say that I miss my kids, but there is no time today, as I work, have lymphatic drainage and an interview date in the afternoon!

Happiness describes my here and now – tired happiness to be more precise 😉 Oh, yes, cancer fatigue is my daily visitor!
I could moan about two root canals Christian did today, the long drive to get there, the necessity to have them done yet another time before I start the bisphosphonate therapy in order to minimize the risk of a necrosis of my jaw bone, but you know what?!?

I am in awe to see all the enthusiasm and excitement in the cancer community leading up the the launch of our first podcast episode on Tuesday. Wow! Thank you!!
People are sharing and they are talking about it and that is exactly what we need and that is our aim – let’s talk about cancer!

#cancerfreethursday and being sick in bed, makes me scroll through my old pictures….what did I do in the past?!? Travel?!? Traveling broadens your horizon and I am lucky to say that I could actually earn money while traveling! It’s the people we meet, the situations we have to go through the barriers we have to overcome!
I am sitting on a bus in India – travelling all by myself – we have already travelled for a good 12 hours and we have a flat tire. I thought that it was a one way street, as it is awfully narrow, but no… it is not and next to our bus is a steep cliff. I am happy though and proud! I find my way!
The cancer journey is the same – a balancing act, just without the foreign cultures (well, most of the time)….. new experiences, challenges, different territories, acquaintances, memories – and a steep cliff!
Looking back, my traveling was often a running away from things and people! That has changed and I no longer need to run away! It is not true that I had no worries prior to cancer – I had them, just different ones, but at the time they sometimes seemed life changing 😉
