What it is like going through pregnancy in remission
A life around a young person vs cancer.. the highs, the lows, the hilarious reality and "everything Olga"
At 23 years old I was diagnosed with a rare form of ovarian cancer (3% of all people have this cancer & 1% of people are teenage and young adult) .. I decided to write this blog to describe the reality of a cancer diagnosis, major surgery, treatment and life now. I joke A LOT but I also have chemo brain so basically.. it might not make much sense. Worth a go though right??
​
I've also just found out I am pregnant (15 weeks 5 days today - 19/03/20) and I struggled to find information out there for people in remission who were pregnant yet still having very regular scans/bloods and clinics etc.. I'll also be very honest about the shit symptoms of having a little 1 (& not afraid to be graphic ;)) so I hope this helps expecting mums, not just those in remission. Thanks :-)
