Tonya O'Donnell - Cancer in a Red Dress

Hi, I am Tonya. I have had a website blog for a long time & it often changes look & content theme. December 2017 my life story changed forever when I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. I changed my blog for 2018 to reflect this years journey. I decided straight away I needed to come out bold & bright & fighting. To help me and maybe others in my journey I will keep a blog of this journey. Through tough times, laughs, tears & everything else along the way. Warning - There may be Minnie Mouse Ears !!
