When reality hits.

Relying on others is one of my biggest weaknesses.
Accepting the help is one of my strongest.

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

Trying to hold on to the positive of passing my second essay but feel so sick and miserable 🤒😢.

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

@ainsliemckendry Aw thanks hun. This lockdown and shielding business is sh*t. Its bloody miserable and I didn't realise how much I need to be around people. Xx

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

@OliveAndLou Platelets dropped to 15 I'm in xhouse hoping they come up this morning and I can go home. Xxx

When everything seems to be going good and we have another set back. Trying to stay positive in this sh*t storm that is cancer. It can't just go away quietly can it. #cancerSucks

It's wig day. 🙈 Why I'm I so nervous. Its just a hairdressers.

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

I passed. Not the grade I hoped for but under the circumstances I'll take it. Useful feedback noted for future essays and going to use for reflection evidence.

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

1st uni grade is being provisionally released today at 12pm. 🙈 Fingers crossed for a pass.

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

I have an idea of where I might be going on my 1st placement. Eek. Now I really need to push through this chemo to be the best I can be. 🤞😁

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

Trying to stay positive. All 1st year assessments submitted. Just a formative with my tutor and Term 1 is done. 👍 Chemo on track for Thursday. So Feb up on being isolated.

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

Why does everything have to be so trying?!? Would be so easy to just give up!

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

Trying to stay positive in a rubbish situation. Is not easy. But the glass is only half full not half empty. I can do this. 💪

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

When you have a bad reaction to the chemo prescribed. 🙈😭 It's been a long day in this chair. Why isn't my body cooperating?! #chemo #cervicalcancer #chemoreaction

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

If anyone is thinking or had thought about becoming an Avon rep. I'm looking for genuine people to join my team and let me help them get they're business going. #avon #rep #business #sales #team #Makeup #retailtherapy #homeandbeauty https://t.co/C0Mjz0XLnV

Procrastinating so much today. I'm blaming the dark wet weather for my lack of concentration. 🙈 #needtogetmyheadinthegame #feelslikeawastedstudyday

@OliveAndLou Thanks that helps alot. It was definitely during this time talking to staff and patients that made me want to be a nurse. I'll have to think hard to pigeon one moment that 'clicked' as my decision was a collective and not one I took lightly.

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

Reflection: feeling good today. Positive I will get remission from after this chemo is done.
I actually understood what the lecturer is talking about today and can see how it relates to all other classes and how it can be applied to practice. Plus my appetite is back, #bonus.

[Jen_ @JenClachrie]

@OliveAndLou I've been out of the loop since beginning of lockdown. Only thing I can think of is I worked as a domestic for 18 months which led to my application to uws. Would that work?
