The original intention of my blog was to share my cancer story, the ups and downs, give a status update to family and friends near and far, motivate and raise breast cancer awareness. The reason I did this so far in English, was mainly, because I lived abroad until 2008!

My followers are more and more in Germany, where I live, our podcast is in German and the focus of my awareness efforts is mainly local. The system I describe is applicable to Germany and therefore I am planning to switch languages.

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!

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?!?
