bra.

It took me quite a bit of effort to take part in the weekly theme. And yet it's important to me to do it. It was a difficult year. I never made it an explicit topic here that I had breast cancer, because I used this place to keep some normality in my life. I experienced everything: terrible fear of what was to come, a chemotherapy that wasn't fun, but also not as bad as expected, and above all a complete success! An operation, which sucked, but I recovered quickly. But I also experienced friendship, support and love. I got to know myself anew as someone with a great will to live and persevere and as someone who, despite everything, has fun in life and says 'now more than ever', and who rejoices in what works and doesn't mourn what doesn't work. For example, instead of styling your hair, you can store for pretty turbans and go out with your head held high instead of hiding at home. I photographed this bra because it was my favorite bra - pretty and comfortable - but there was a time when I didn't know if I would be able to wear it again one day. For three months I couldn't. But now I'm wearing it again :-)

By the way, 'bra' means 'good' in Swedish. And that's how I feel!
