Quite surreal seeing myself flat on @bbcnews website this morning.And then to find that it was the most watched video by 10am. Very happy though & great to get awareness for patient choice and @flatfriendsuk #breastcancer #flatandfabulous #mastectomy #reconstructivesurgery #bodypositive https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/health-45595123/why-i-m-happy-living-flat-after-breast-cancer.

Sitting on a bench next to one of my favourite places, thinking about @bigclittleme friends & family today as they say goodbye to her & celebrate her wonderful life #youmebigc #breastcancer #happytobealive

Volunteering at @breast_cancer_care Moving Forward course today. Wish the tshirt wasn’t orange!! #breastcancer #volunteer #givingback

I was guest editor on @bbc5live with @therealnihal today. We had a brilliant discussion about #patientchoice after #mastectomy. To #liveflat or #reconstruct I think you know my answer to that!! @flatterfashion also joined us. I stupidly forgot to take any photos of my day in Manchester - not great for Instagram. So I’ve borrowed this from @hannahwatson50 I really enjoyed myself. I’ve listened to 5 Live since it started so it was amazing for me to actually broadcast on the station. Thanks for having me & bringing some awareness to flatness. Here’s the link to the programme. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0000fy0. Listen from 14 mins 10 secs

I've been thinking how to react to Rachael's death. This is my very small contribution to the body of work that's been written since Wednesday. I didn’t know Rachael but she touched my life before & after I and she were diagnosed with breast cancer. Link in biog

October issue of @goodhousekeepinguk has a 6 page feature on breast cancer. Loads of great information about treatment and choices. Oh yes and I’m in it too. Thanks for the interview @ellarosedove #livingflat #mastectomy #breastcancer @flatfriendsuk

Sunflowers still going...just. Getting a bit scruffy now. Autumn is really here. Going to miss looking at the flowers every day #flowersmakemehappy #endofsummer #loveautumn #lifeaftercancer

#Repost @julietkfp with @get_repost ・・・ For all my flowery followers, my other Instagram account is about my life after cancer as well as the normal day to day stuff & photos. Ive been thinking how to react to Rachael's death. This is my very small contribution to the body of work that's been written since Wednesday. I didn’t know Rachael but she touched my life before & after I and she were diagnosed with breast cancer. Link in biog
