    expect a miracle

    Yesterday was Day 2 of this year's five days of treatment. I'm not too worse for wear, which is wonderful.

    The side effects tend to be cumulative, so I'm not counting my chickens but I am expecting a miracle.

    About a month ago, I went to the GP for some compulsory pre-treatment screening. We frankly discussed the success rate of the treatment and how it doesn't work for everyone. I left the surgery feeling a little discouraged - what if I was putting my family (and my body) through this for no benefit?

    I walked back to the car; head down, mood pensive. I wasn't asking for a sign, but I almost tripped over the one the universe delivered anyway.

    There in the middle of the footpath, outside the hippy shop that sells flowing dresses and silver jewellery, was a black board. Written in chalk was ..

    Expect a miracle.

    Fine tune your thinking and manifest the power that belongs to you.

    And so I have. I made myself a lock screen for my phone and a coffee mug as a reminder.

    If you need a little reminder to expect a miracle, you can save it by holding your finger on the image below (or right clicking on your PC.)expect a miracle home screen

    Mum snapped me yesterday skipping my miracle to the loo m' darling. I'm glad she did. I reckon we'll look back at this photo with happiness in years to come.black bag of miracle

    Miracles come covered in black plastic bags - who knew?*

      Oh, I hope you get all the benefits of the treatment, but none of the side effects. When I was having treatment, my psychologist always used to tell me to think about the possible outcome. It makes sense because the body achieves what the mind believes. Here's to miracles! Hugs for you xx

      You are so positive -- I truly think that will have a big impact on it working. And it will work.
