Spent the weekend in the water and at the beach, definitely can’t complain. We’ve got fish for the table and I’m satisfied with a couple of days diving. It’s been a bit of a tough week with bone aches from the new chemo which started last Monday but much to my relief, it disappeared when I was diving. One of the greatest feelings about diving is the distraction from everything else and being completely in the moment which is something I appreciate more so now than before. It’s been such a relief to still be able to dive and not be held back from treatment. My breath hold and dive fitness are still just as good as they were before treatment unlike my strength. This Pearl Perch was crumbed, cooked and eaten last night. As fresh as it gets

That feeling when hours in the water hunting pays off and team effort of course. Dad was just as stoked as I was to get this fish and apparently mum was in the boat sobbing when I was hollering through my snorkel, she was so happy

If you want to know just how happy I was to shoot this beautiful jewfish today you’ll have to see the video. There’s a LOT of shouting and cheering through my snorkel These past few weeks have been a tough slog with chemo but the last few days have been wonderful and today just topped it off. I’ll treasure this memory of this jew for many years to come because of when it was taken. 14 years ago when dad was going through treatment with cancer as well, he shot a nice fat jewfish too. The similarities make me happy and the ocean felt amazing to be in

It’s when you get greedy then you don’t catch at all. Shot this Omilu and noticed a bigger one was cruising beneath it. Sash is better than no sash! @venturewetsuits shot w/ my @hatchcustomspearguns Rhino! #teamventurewetsuits #venturewetsuits #hatchcustomspearguns

Yesterday’s Jewie! Dad and I had already spent a couple hours in the water and hadn’t seen much before deciding to try a different spot. Mum and dad dropped me off and my first dive down I see a school of about six delicious looking jewfish. I lined one up, took a long shot and pin pricked it. It swam off and will 100% live another day. I wasn’t upset, because things in my life right now don’t always seem to go to plan. So as I was breathing up to dive again, a school of about 10 monster kings swam through, biggest would have been minimum 20kgs. I dived down but they swam off and to my right, where the Jew had been was one still there! The footage shows the rest. I didn’t think my spear went the whole way through so dad helped out and second shot it for me. Turns out my shot would have held but better to be safe than sorry. My snorkel talk is a bit embarrassing but you can probably tell that the stoke was real!

I find it really hard to decide what to post since my life got flipped upside down three months ago. I’m not doing the things I love as much or they’ve been made a little bit more difficult. I’m sick of being the cancer person and seeing myself in a mirror only emphasise the fact that I am. It’s hard seeing what I look like now, who’d have thought at 25 I’d look like this. I don’t want to post photos of myself because I don’t want to be remembered like this years down the track, even when I’m all better. For the first week to ten days after each round I’m pretty much totally cooked but normally managing to go back into work on day 3-4 and struggling. This period always seems to be when the weather is good too and I’ve had to turn down opportunities to the barrier reef and to spear dream fish on the south coast. It’s tough but I have to remember this is temporary, one day all this struggle will seem like a distant memory and I can’t wait for that day. I’m so thankful during this time for an amazing family and Willow. Everyday she makes me happy and takes such good care of me when out riding. Excited, nervous, proud and terrified that four rounds of the worst type of chemo treatment is behind me but I don’t think i’ll believe it until I know the side effects of the next one. For now, here’s to hoping there’s more chances soon to be back in the water. This woman is in some serious need of vitamin sea #breastcancer #breastcancerawareness
