Well, it's been awhile since I've posted, but I thought I'd put up a quick post to explain before I post any projects.
Just over 4 weeks ago, I was diagnosed with a brain tumour and had urgent neurosurgery. I will be needing radiation and chemotherapy (tablets - yay!) but at the moment, I'm recovering from the surgery. Needless to say, it's been a journey that was very unexpected but the support and treatment I have had has been absolutely fantastic. This journey has only just begun so your thoughts and prayers are appreciated.
I'm hopeful that during treatment I will be able to continue to craft and blog when I can as the future is so uncertain and I'm not sure how I'm going to respond to the treatment. I'm picking that stamping will be my therapy and outlet for this journey - so thankful for the ability to be creative! Will you join me on this journey?
Also just wanted to shout out a BIG thank you to my fantastic upline, Paula and the Paper Divas team for there support and encouragement over that last few weeks. The flowers were incredible! You're an amazing bunch of ladies!! Thank you!
