Hello! This week has been really lovely. There has been something I enjoyed every day! On Thursday of last week I had my first session of acupuncture. I was referred for this by my palliative consultant. It can help people with nausea, and has a rising success rate. I don’t know if we were the […]

MoreHello! I have had a jam packed week and am absolutely exhausted but happy. I was at the hospice for a bit this week. I had a great time! We made Mauam popcorn (my brothers review was “terrible” and my mums was”It’s going in the bin…”). I also made some rainbow cookies. Below is my […]

MoreSo I stopped the Wednesday streak, which I am kind of gutted about but hey ho. Where I’ve been for two weeks…So, hello!
