I have been quiet. This has been part intent and part descent. I apologise. My comeback should come soon but for now, I need to rest this weary head. In 2021 I finally got a name to apply to my pain but from that point, I have spiralled; I have been elated; relieved; deceived. My… Continue reading Journal #6 Hear me Roar (quietly)

Journal #5 Not what I expected . . .
Thursday 17th February marked the post-op follow up for the laparoscopy I had in November. The keyhole surgery that found and treated endometriosis but I didn't know the ins and outs till this week.

Journal #1 – Jade is completely fine
I am though. Honest. Hell, compared to where I have been - this is heaven. Just coasting along safe in the knowledge that I am just coasting along.
