    Two Years On

    December 19, 2019 / No Comments

    October 7, 2019 / No Comments

    I Don’t Know How

    March 24, 2018 / No Comments

    I don’t know how to put this chapter of my life to bed. The one that saw me diagnosed with cervical cancer at 29. The one that put me back on a surgeons operating table, for better or worse.

    Tonight I sit on a fold out bed in a hospital room on a children’s ward watching you sleep. You are here because you don’t seem to like your milk, and as such you don’t eat enough.
