Another favourite I’d had in mind and a fab milestone to say ‘ain’t dead yet!’ “Obviously like most haven’t been for a while due to covid, but so nice to be back and thank you to @ascotracecourse for making the whole experience for me and my brother just seamless and achievable for me. Memories made, but most importantly I got 3 wins in a row and am still bouncing off the ceiling from them still!!!” She then went on to speak about her “stressful” feelings towards not knowing how long she has left to live, writing: “I find myself living in limbo land, not really knowing what the future holds and for how long. "It’s a very stressful and uncertain place to be because when I was discharged from hospital over a month ago I was given days, maybe a week to live.
