Cancer and sisterly love ❤️

I am the eldest of 3 girls. I have the cancer gene. Go figure I would be the one to get that. But on the flip side. Yep I got it. Thank goodness my sisters didn't get it. Before we found out they were clear, it was a big worry for them. As it would be.
My sisters have supported me through this battle and always been buy my side through my ordeal,  this weekend I am heading to the country to my home town. That is Goulburn, it's in the southern highlands one hour from Canberra, I am so excited to see my Dad and great family time.
Family and friends do take a cancer blow badly as well. They are a ultimate support through life and everyday things. Excitement and sharing hard times is what that back up is all about. I have the best back up system in the world. Family is so important.
On Dads side my Nan lived to 100 and 3 weeks. My Yia Yia which is on my mums side is 87 and a trooper. She still cooks for 20 people and does her own gardening, she loves roses 🌹 I have always admired her garden. My sister Alana is cooking up a storm for Yia Yia, Dad and Me.
So I am heading to the country this weekend.
Sisters backing each other. Look at us go.
My Dad is so proud, my mum if she was here would be too.
It's not hard to see how lucky we are. Lean on your brothers and sisters. Blood is thicker than water.

"Hard nipples" - areola or nipple skin

Someone once wrote"... when i get really cold, or get goosebumbs all over my body, the whole things really scrunch up, like, my entire areola scrunches itself up into a wrinkled little mound. it looks really weird and ugly, and i haven't ever seen other people's breasts do it. what is wrong with my areola/nipples??" The answer: Well nothing is wrong. This is what my areola does too. It's a normal reaction to the coldness or to irritation / stimulation. The little muscles in the areola do a similar goosebump thing as your other skin can do. People often call this phenomenon "hard nipples". Also note that skin on areola has less feeling or sensation to it than other areas of your body. If the areola was very sensitive, then breastfeeding would probably be quite uncomfortable because the baby pulls and tugs it! The nipples are sensitive but the sensitivity changes with hormonal changes, such as occur at mestrual cycle or pregnancy. Also this v...

Monumental cleavage alert! Did Natalie Portman get a boob job?

Black Swan Oscar winner Natalie Portman has sparked feverish debate about whether or not she's had a boob job, after she appeared on camera at an American football game looking bustier than before. The 31-year-old, who gave birth to son Aleph in June 2011, was watching the game in Austin, Texas during a break from shooting the as-yet-untitled new Terrence Malick film. With co-star Michael Fassbender by her side, a newly blonde Natalie was spotted by the cameras during the ABC broadcast. While it could very well be a push-up bra, or a consequence of breast-feeding her bub, Twitter fans immediately speculated about the star's potentially enhanced assets. "Natalie Portman @ the Texas-Baylor game ... boob job? Looks like it!" one user wrote. "Wait a second, did Natalie Portman get a boob job? Is she pregnant? On the sidelines of Texas game and #wow," another tweeted. Comments on the YouTube clip ran along the same lines, albeit many of them ...

Loosing a parent!

When a Parent Dies: Dealing with the Loss of Your Mother or Father By David Kessler This is spot on. I guess until you go through this you will never know.  #parents #love #grief #davidkessler #survivor #iamstillawoman  When a parent of an adult dies, there is almost an unspoken expectation that it will not hit you head on. An adult is expected to accept death as a part of life, to handle all sudden losses in an appropriate adult manner. But really, what does that mean? That you should not be sad? That you should be so grateful they didn’t die when you were a child that you don’t need to mourn your parent? The above considerations demonstrate an under-estimation of grief. Grief is the reflection of the connection that has been lost. That loss does not diminish because you are an adult or because your mother or father lived a long life. Our society places enormous pressure on us to get over loss, to get through the grief. But how long do you grieve for the man who...
