Hey! I’m Kat and I currently live in London. I started this blog as an interesting means of noting, chronicling and expressing my journey through cancer treatment for the second time, whilst at the same time preparing to undertake the Talisker Atlantic Row – attempting to row the Atlantic as part of team ExtraOARdinary in 2021. It’s not about putting my life on show, it’s an attempt to talk about some of the stuff that impacts you when going through cancer – even the awkward stuff people don’t want to talk about, and also means I don’t have to repeat myself, as I’m finding that most people have similar questions when it comes to treatment and living with the disease.

Now, I should point out, that I’m by no means a doctor, so whilst I write about the treatments I’m receiving as accurately as possible, given I’m no Dougie Howser MD, they may not be entirely free from error. As anyone who has gone through cancer treatment knows, sometimes it’s hard to take everything the Doctor says in!

Anyway, this blog is not intended to be all doom and gloom, but it’s as honest and uncensored as it comes and hopefully with some bants and chuckles thrown in!

Much love x
