#day2 of #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth
To most these photos show a happy time. To me, they show a moment where I knew something was wrong, but no one else did. We were supposed to be on our 4th of July weekend away to the lake. Everyone was so excited to be on "vacation". I had already made up my mind that I was not going to say anything just yet because I did not want to ruin our time. I wanted to preserve the innocence for a few more moments.
Internally I was a wreck. As I captured these photos, all I could think of was that these would be captured memories for my kids. These were very intentional photos taken by me. I love my babies more than anything in the world and the thought of not being there for them or my husband was crushing. I was in full panic mode inwardly while trying to pretend that everything was absolutely fine.
It was not at all fine. I did not know it yet that it was cancer, but I for sure knew in my heart, this was cancer.
Follow along as I share a daily journal like entry that shares my personal journey with breast cancer. These are never before shared moments and the inward thoughts and experiences within my heart. Feel free to share my story as many are touched by this terrible disease and some may need to hear it.
Stay tuned for more tomorrow!
