A year ago today I was told that I had cancer. This photo was taken the night before that fateful doctor's appointment. My older son's best friend from Sydney and her Dad had come to stay - a much anticipated visit which was about to take an unforgettable turn. Here we are on the lawns of Darwin's Casino, watching a lovely dry season sunset while waiting for a Vince Jones concert to start. I was due to get my biopsy result the next morning and was trying desperately to be brave.
This photo was taken tonight, while having dinner at the Darwin waterfront with my darling hubby. Ah, what a time we've had.
To everyone who has supported and encouraged us over the past year - thank you. From now on, the 4th of July will be a day upon which I feel intense gratitude for being anything but independent.
