Happy happy birthday to my wonderful husband and best friend Greigor. 🥰

I don’t need to ramble on and tell you what a super star of a human he is because to
know him is to love him and I’m just so grateful that I’m the lucky one that gets to create a life with him. ✨

Cheers to another trip around the sun! 🥂

Nine years ago I married my best friend on the most perfect crisp Autumn day! 🍂🍁🍂

Nine years down, forever to go Mr Batty. 💗

First radiation and isolation done and dusted team

First radiation and isolation done and dusted team! ✔️🙌🏼
Bring on freedom day (as of tomorrow!) 💃🏻

It’s been a long 3.5weeks isolating from the world and an even longer 12 days without my little sausage roll and his cuddles. 🧒🏼💗

It has definitely been a big old roller coaster of emotions. From starting a new treatment and the side effects that come with that, to my little hospital isolation/psych ward room and the vile beef stew. You guys have been with me on stories through it all. My daily bath and skin care, to the sheer exhaustion and not being able to sleep at night and the tears of me missing my boys. I know sometimes you might think your messages don’t matter to a stranger on the internet but please know your kind messages have really helped pull me through and lifted my spirits.✨

I’m so grateful to have wonderful in-laws that have looked after me and allowed me the time for my body to rest without worrying about anything and a wonderful SIL who has had a little shadow following her around asking why 7,000 time a day so that Greig could continue to work. 🥰

Tomorrow we are off to Wales for our annual family trip and I am so excited to get there, squeeze my baby boy and be back with Greig. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I think it’s time to start thinking about the festive season and forget about radiation and isolation until January when we’ll start it all over again. 🎄🎅🏽

For now thank you for being the best cheer squad on the internet!
Love you, mean it! 💋

Always better together. 💗

As of yesterday I was allowed to be in contact with adults. Three more days and counting until I can be near small humans and released to the wild! 🧒🏼🌲

This guy come over for a little date while my MIL and SIL (the real MVP’s of this situation! ✨) had JJ. We only had a couple of hours but to be able to hugs and chat while we puzzled away was the best. 🧩

After nearly 17years I couldn’t love him anymore if I tried. I even did a facial and hair mask for the occasion. 🧖🏻‍♀️

This is the guy you want in your corner when shit hits the fan. The things he’s done over the past 6 months to make sure I’m ok have gone above and beyond. My hope for anyone that finds themselves in a similar shitty situation is that they have a Greig in their corner.

I love you Greig Batty 💗

It feels an appropriate time to bring back the old hashtag #everygirlneedsagreig 👌🏼

And we’ve made it…to isolation day 13! 👊🏼

We’ve already had ALL the tears (my tears not JJ’s! 💦) after leaving our little guy at the Grandparents. Thankfully he absolutely loves being there and going on lots of adventures so that makes it easier knowing he’s having a ball. ✨

I still need to pack because there’s nothing like leaving everything to the last minute. I feel like all day I’ve been mentally packing I just haven’t managed to get up stairs and do the job yet. I think I have it sorted though. And then of course I feel like I should probably shave my legs because I haven’t seen people in awhile and ya know! 🤷🏻‍♀️

Anyways best stop scrolling and go get packed/leg shaved etc. Mentally preparing for more tears tomorrow when I have to leave Greig in the car park because facial leakage is a real non stop thing here! 🤪

It’s time to make Deborah radioactive! ☢️
