She didn’t know it then

She didn’t know it then, but in two days, her life would be changed forever.

This selfie was taken one year ago today.

About to leave France – taking three flights back to Australia. Montpelier, Paris, Singapore.

Looking radiant, feeling relaxed. So happy, filled with memories of seven and a half weeks of travel.

She had no idea what was ahead.

She’d arrive home, go to the doctor who will send her to Emergency. And then she would be told she probably has cancer.
