Harishy Pulverises Vecna - The Lost Episode

30/09/2026

Glad to be seeing another birthday tomorrow ☺️
It was never a case of cancer as a death threat, never crossed my mind but I didn't know where it would lead to.
I have been fortunate enough to be cleared free from cancer and I can only trust my body is up to keeping it at bay.

Recovery has, and is still hard and I have done myself no favours in trying to rush my recovery and coming to terms with the 'new' me is a mental struggle but I am persisting and can see a slow progress.

But to end on a positive...

Happy 53rd birthday for tomorrow to me and hope I get to see many, many more as I have so much more to give life and see 🥰❤️🎂🎁🍻🍺🍾🥂🍹🥃

4-week check done and all looking great 😃 consultant doesn't know why it's hurting me to eat so hopefully will get better over time 🙏😁

15/09/2026

I have my next 4 week check Thursday and I've had to succumb to the morphine again 😭😭 tongue is hurting and still struggling to eat and not choke 😔 think I have rushed myself too soon 😔😔😔😔

26/08/2026

Four week check up today and everything is still looking positive and 🤞 I get my PEG removed in a few weeks 😁
As much as it's all going well, physically and mentally I am still drained and the weekend just gone I felt I'd back tracked a couple of months!

I know it's going to take time and I know I will never be who I was before but I'm alive and it's what's keeping me looking to the future ❤️

It's just so damn hard as when the cancers gone and you 'look ok' there is the pressure to be ok and 'go back to normal' 😰
But normal is a new normal and if I have a bad period I am not going to give myself a hard time for having my moments.

Physically I am still struggling and I can't eat how I did before and it's a feckin chore to swallow what I do eat!!

Mentally I feel sometimes like I'm drowning and that I should be more grateful for life and I plan to be just right now the light at the end of the tunnel flickers now and again but the network of support that HAS been consistent has helped relight it in more ways than one 🥰🥰

All good news and thankful I have the best consultant and MDT in the world but I just need to take a little more time to find me again.

Peace love and happiness to you all and thank you for all your support ❤️‍🩹❤️❤️‍🩹

Thank you from the absolute bottom of my heart for all your well wishes and love I received yesterday from my news. You have all been a massive part of me getting through my darkest days and this is when social media has the most positive impact on people's lives!
You are fantastic humans ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Just wanted to give a full update to the fantastic news I received as in no way didn't want to spin any negativity on the absolute positiveness of what my amazing consultant gave me!

My PET scan showed the radiotherapy and chemotherapy absolutely did its job and there is no cancer present 💝
It did however show a non-specific highlighted area at the back of my tongue meaning my consultant has been asked to review this area in particular on my 4-weekly check-ups to ensure the 30-40% chance of cancer reoccurring doesn't mature 🥰 that is positive news as the ultimate result is there is no cancer present 💪💪🙌🙌
I will just be monitored like everyone else over the next 5 years who has had cancer but they will be examining that particular area more closely.

I still have to keep my feeding tube because I am still losing weight. I started this journey at 11stone and since March have lost weight to now being 8st 8lb as of my weigh-in this morning so even lost weight since yesterday!!
I was disappointed with this but hey ho it's a little bit of an inconvenience in the grand scheme of things!!

I have developed lymphoedema around my neck in the last couple of weeks which is fluid but I still have a lot of swelling in my throat and voice box which affects my ability to eat and speak for a length of time...

I am cured, however, I feel it's important to note, my body is still in recovery and some things will never be the same as they were before and I am still adapting to what my body can't do that it could do only a few months ago. I will still have fatigue and I will still have some dark days. If this happens please bear with me if I seem to be less positive and sound ungrateful for at least being alive!!
I am very grateful I just have to work out how this new body of mine works!!!!

To end on the positive - my husband, my girls, my son-in-law, my stepson and his wife and the 6 beautiful grandbabies, my Dad, my mom and my stepdad, sister-in-law, and all of you lovely lot deserve recognition for keeping me sane and positive and feeling loved 😍 thank you to each and everyone of you for taking this journey with me ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

Love, peace and happiness to you all 💚

Today, July 27, is World Head and Neck Cancer Day.

Head and neck cancer is often cited as the seventh most common cancer worldwide, yet many people know very little about it.

Before my diagnosis, I did not know cancer could begin in a tonsil.

I did not know that a lump in the neck could be the first obvious warning sign.

I did not know that HPV could cause throat cancer or that someone relatively young, someone who does not fit the image people often associate with this disease, could still be diagnosed.

I was 43 when I learned firsthand.

My cancer began in my left tonsil and had spread to lymph nodes in my neck. My father was later diagnosed with the same type of cancer in a slightly different location in the back of his throat. His early warning sign was coughing up blood.

That diagnosis changed my body, my life, and the way I will listen to my body forever.

Head and neck cancers can affect the mouth, throat, tonsils, tongue, voice box, nose, sinuses, and salivary glands. Possible warning signs can include:

A lump or swelling in the neck.
A persistent sore throat.
Trouble or pain when swallowing.
Hoarseness or a change in the voice.
Unexplained ear pain.
Coughing up blood.
A sore or patch in the mouth that does not heal.
Unexplained weight loss.
Changes that continue, worsen, or simply do not feel right.

These symptoms do not automatically mean cancer. But persistent or unexplained symptoms deserve to be taken seriously.

Head and neck cancer is not only a smoker’s disease. To***co and heavy alcohol use are risk factors, but HPV is also an important cause of oropharyngeal cancers, including cancers of the tonsils and base of the tongue.

Today, I raise awareness for those currently in treatment, those waiting for answers, those living with the lasting effects, those we have lost, and those who may receive an earlier diagnosis because someone shared what they knew.

Awareness cannot erase what cancer takes.

But it may help someone recognize a warning sign, ask another question, seek another opinion, or finally receive the answer they have been searching for.

Please share. Someone may need this information more than we realize.

Hopefully some good news will be coming 🤞 PET scan booked for 24th July which will hopefully show 0 cancer cells 🤞☠️

Hey all 👋🤗
Hope everyone's well, keeping hydrated, enjoying the sun and most importantly, using sun cream!!! ❤️

So after having a very turbulent few weeks, I am starting to feel better 🤩🙌 still nauseous but no sickness for a couple of weeks so definitely need to keep taking the anti sickness 🤢🤢 plus the football has been keeping me very entertained and keeping my mind off things for a while ⚽⚽.

Whats everyones predictions for Saturday?

I can't believe how different every single day is for me right now! Getting up and never really knowing how I'm going to be feeling for the rest of the day...
I applaud anyone who has had chemotherapy and radiotherapy and managed to stay positive throughout I never really expected some of my days would be so dark that I actually wanted to close my eyes and wish to not wake up. Dramatic maybe but I honestly have never felt so poorly. It's also hard when some people are just bypassing what your going through and still trying to make themselves the centre of attention. It really shows how much you are thought of!
But on a lighter note those that have been constant thank you from the bottom ofy heart 💜 ❤️ you will never understand how much each comment left on my posts or likes have helped me massively and made me realise how much people do care even if I haven't seen them since school days or those that only know me through social media, you have all contributed massively to how I've been able to get through these dark days 💜❤️
I'm sure there are more to come but I am determined this will not stop me from LIVING my life the way I want to.

Appreciate your loved ones, appreciate those that are your cheerleaders. Eliminate the negativity and let them wallow in their own self pity and don't let them take any emotion or time up that should be given to those who appreciate you.

Looking forward to the day I can say I am completely cancer free, hopefully my next scan will be the beginning of that journey 🙌.

Keep strong, keep living and keep striving to make your dreams come true 💜❤️

Love, Peace and Happiness to you all 💚

Hi All haven't posted for a while as been quite poorly with vomiting 🤢 was sent to A&E yesterday where I spent 8 hours!! Bloods thankfully came back normal so no infection but was given a bag of fluid as lost another 11lb in 2 weeks because of not being able to eat or drink, that's 2 stone since February.
Thankfully now have more anti sickness tablets and have changed the fortisip for juices so hopefully my stomach will tolerate them more.
Although I do think grief of losing our beautiful boy Pirlo 🩵 added to it. He was my little shadow who didn't leave my side even more so when I became ill. We had to make the most devastating decision of our lives and my husband feels the guilt everyday 💔 however he was so poorly himself he had a seizure and lost all control of his back legs and bladder etc. His last weekend we stayed with him constantly and then made the decision to put him to sleep Monday 8th June because we couldn't bear to watch him in anymore pain. He passed away quickly lying in my arms at home with his mom mom and dad telling him how perfect he was and how much love he had brought to our family and he would never be forgotten but it was ok for him to go so he was pain free. It was the worst pain we have ever endured.
Our little shadow, our huge protector and the glue that solidified our blended family.
Our beautiful boy Pirlo 🩵.

And to top it off another close family member is now in hospital awaiting results.

2026 from January 7th you have tested us, taken our precious boy and thrown a third spanner in the works. Please please let it be more positive from now 💝

Sorry it's another doom and gloom update but it's the reality of our lives right now.

Sending love peace and happiness to you all 💚
