The theme for this world cancer day is united by unique. Adrenal cancer is so unique that it’s not even given a mention in cancer circles. It’s rare 1 in a million people worldwide will be diagnosed annually.

I have no interest in being unique, I just want to exist.

I have seen people posting upside down photos, to show that cancer “turned their world upside down”

This feels more fitting. I hate cancer and what it’s done to my life.

This isn’t a particularly interesting or engaging post but I have a full day of therapy today and a scan tomorrow so want to, as best as I can, preserve my energy for those things. However I didn’t want to let this day pass me by without saying something of how I feel.

A selfie of me. A white woman with blue green eyes and blonde brownish hair. The photo is flipped so it is upside down.

  2. A typically honest, no frills blog from an honest, no frills, quite amazing young woman. Thanks for telling it as it is- Cancer is crap- but YOU are amazing- and you find the strength to face it and fight it. Thinking of you, especially over next few days.
