This is my lot in life. It's not a lot, but it's my life.

Day 16 Blog Everyday in May
Being diagnosed with Breast Cancer has been the most difficult 'Lot in life' I have ever encountered , up there with losing my daughter, and my husband being diagnosed with cancer 3 yrs ago.

It has also opened my eyes to the fact I am not alone nor unique because of breast cancer..

Lots of people are fighting their own battles every single day. Depression, Diabetes, Addiction and even the man flu ...


What if we all wore a sign to describe our battle - would you care more about lesser things ?
Or you just adhere to the attitude of "I'm glad it's not me" or "Get over it " when you read some sob stories.
It is something I now think more about before getting annoyed at someone too because they have a whinge about whatever LOT is giving them LOTS of strife.

I digress. I'm working running (or walking) to overcome "my lot" by staying as fit and as healthy as possible.

I encourage others to run too, to fundraise for the cure and to support those already affected by breast cancer. I'm registering for 14km City to Surf - walk or running for Breast Cancer Network Australia. Once I get my fundraising page up I hope I get sponsors !
PS - Even if I never know what your battle or 'Lot in life ' is - I hope you overcome and win , or at least enjoy the fight. :)

I love the way your worded the title for this one. I really feel terrible saying I have any difficult lot in life. I am blessed in so many ways, too many to count or even mention actually. Fairy wishes and butterfly kisses lovely, I hope you get overcome and win your lot sooner rather than later xx

I have been inordinately lucky in my life so far, or at least that's how it feels. I'm overwhelmingly amazed at the way people stand up and cope throughout adversity because I just don't know how they do it. I remember reading Lori at RRSAHM saying that you carry on because you have to. You carry on because what othe option is there. All the same, I applaud and admire your strength.

Beautifully written, Trish. We all do indeed carry some form of hardship, one way or another but it is all about how we tackle it or just plainly accept it.
So proud of you doing the City2Surf again. I will see you there at the finishing line! x
