What a start to the year... I have had an absolutely amazing time at home in England with my mum and sister over Christmas and New year, and as always, leaving was a pain!! On Sunday, the day of travel, I wake up with my ulcerous colitis blossoming up. My body was beyond exhausted, aching…
So much has happened recently and the thought of this blog was for me to be honest and open with you about my life and life with an invisible illness, however some things I don't always wanna share out just like that...but I'm gonna give you a little at least...the past few months have been…
2 years later I'm visiting the hospital again. Luckily today was "only" for some iron as my iron levels were freakishly low, and I am so happy that there is an actually reason behind my tiredness and the feeling like shit. Walking into the ward to get my iron I saw one of my lovely…

Hey all, sorry it's been a while, times just flown by! I've been doing lots and nothing haha but today's post I really just wanted to focus on one thing. Prolapse. So I have experienced my first prolapse, and my days, it was very scary! It was a few weeks back and I had had…
This week has been tough but nothing like last weekend. So in that sense I have got better! I manage to sleep a bit at night and only have a few desperate toilet trips, which increase on an evening and still some blood but it's better at least - looking for the positives! I've been…
Wow. I cannot believe it has been a year! Today marks the day! November 1st. What a year it has been. It's amazing to think what I have been able to do thanks to Stevie! So lets rewind a bit first. After an extremely tough month, or well months of no food, no sleep, a…
