Snow Globe

LUMP

"a shaken snow globe is exactly how a cancer diagnosis feels. Suddenly there you are, trapped inside your fragile bubble, desperately trying to remain upright while the soft petals of everything you ever took for granted and thought you knew, fly around your head. Everything unsettled, dislodged, the only certainty being that nothing will come to land in quite the same place ever again..."

A year down the line, with Christmas looming, Pen reflects on how much has changed since the last festive season although she also comes to realise, somethings haven't changed at all.

Searingly honest, heart-breaking, often sweary and laugh out loud funny, LUMP is one woman’s rollercoaster ride through the mind meltdown which comes with learning you have breast cancer.

Utterly human and compelling, it’s a unique story which will resonate with anyone and everyone who’s ever had a battle with a life changing event in their lives.
