2016, these photos are a snapshot of a version of me who was just trying to get through
• Red shirt: my last day at the PA Hospital doing cancer care — work I truly loved and still hold close
• Red dress: Physio grad ball, taken with my sister who carried me through my degree, alongside George and my other sister
• Uni was hard. I didn’t enjoy it… until final year placement when it finally clicked — and I fell in love with physio
• The spinning photo matters because every semester Mum said: “just finish this one, then decide” — and somehow that was enough to keep going
• Eventually I’d come too far to stop… and I’m so glad I didn’t
• Marshmallow pic = my favourite food and a rare treat — I was broke, skipping champagne and sweets, so this felt like luxury
• Looking back now with so much gratitude for the people who believed in me when I wasn’t sure I did
• Ten years on, still grateful I stuck it out 💕💕
