#ReasonsToBeGrateful On this date, 2 years ago, on Mon April 16, 2018 I received my first infusion of Pembrolizumab, the lifesaving immunotherapy drug that has not only kept me alive but living with a quality of life I did not think was possible with terminal cancer. I honestly thought that I would be spending my final months sick and in bed, and possibly in a hospital or hospice. BUT This drug has given me my life back and, apart from one stint in hospital in Feb 2019, I have been living my life and not waiting to die. I have taken every opportunity that has one key way and I no longer say No to things I would have balked at before. I am up for anything. I want to have as many experiences as I can before my time comes, and it will come. I am living my life as if every minute counts and I am so grateful for every extra day that I get with my children, Amelia and Darragh and with my extended family and friends. Don’t wait until you are in a situation like mine to do the things you always wanted to do or to say the things you always wanted to say. Just.Do.It What’s the worst that could happen? So, while we are all suffering from a lack of physical contact with our family and friends in lockdown, it would be nice to share your #ReasonsToBeGrateful to remind ourselves of what we already have ❤
