This day four years ago, I underwent major surgery for cervical cancer. It was a difficult and life-changing experience but I know I was one of the lucky ones, and in the years since then, I've felt even luckier as I've heard the terrible stories of so many other women who weren't as fortunate. Cervical Check is far from perfect, but at the moment, particularly for those of us too old to benefit from vaccination, it's all we've got. If you're a woman reading this and you haven't been tested recently, please make that appointment with your GP. 88 women a year still die from cervical cancer in Ireland, and it has far-reaching and life-changing effects on many of those who don't die. I try not to think of where I might be now if I hadn't had regular smear tests - I still got cancer but it was caught at the earliest stage. If you're a man reading this, please encourage the women in your life to get tested regularly if they don't already do so. We only get one life. #Grateful #Thankful #Lucky #CervicalCancer

What a rare and lovely weekend! Beautiful weather, enough time to catch up with friends and some of the small people in my life (another six more like this one and I might catch up with everyone 🙈), reading, circuits, a beach walk and enough sleep, food prep done for the week ahead and an opportunity to breathe. I could get used to this!!! #weekend #selfcare

Congrats to our All-Ireland Minor Football winning captain, Conor Corbett, on a richly-deserved @corks_96fm @c103cork @rochestown_park_hotel Sports Award! #GAA
