I’ve been dreading doing the whole ‘this time last year’ thing. I hope that in time the vivid recollections I’m currently able to make about my diagnosis (to the point of remembering the exact time, what I was wearing) will fade.
For now, I just wanted to get out of the house, away from the situation I found myself in this time 12 months ago.
An escape to a health retreat couldn’t have been more perfect if I’d deliberately set out to organise it. But I hadn’t you see.
In a lovely turn of events, I’ve been gifted a delightful weekend at Gwinganna, courtesy of a special woman who was at an event I spoke at last year. You just never know who’s in the audience and what they might take from what you have to say. This lady who works at Gwinganna very kindly gifted me a stay at this magnificent retreat, saying ‘by sharing your experience you will help others, I’m choosing to give something to you because I can.’ Wow……
Spectacular setting (within an hour from home), beautiful caring staff, incredible organic, healthy, nourishing food, clean fresh air, peace and quiet…a truly lovely way to take stock of how dramatically my life has changed in the past 12 months and to prepare for the next surgery.
