My long time friend Trudy and I discuss her cancer journey so far. Being faced with her mortality everyday has spurred Trudy into living her life well while thinking about and planning for the future (however bleak the drs told her it would be). Nearly 6 years on from her diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer (and still on her first line of treatment) she is defying the “odds” and is the biggest light to others. It’s heavy. It’s real. It’s weird.
