I am coming to the end of my fifth day wearing a sea sponge tampon and I am humming the theme tune to Spongebob Squarepants as I write up perhaps one of the oddest products I have ever reviewed. Sea sponge tampons are a reusable, eco friendly alternative to regular disposable tampons and I was […]
If the whole surgery and losing my colon wasn’t quite enough, my body has decided to throw me another curveball in the form of hair loss. It has happened after every surgery to be honest, I think it is something to do with either the General Anaesthetic or perhaps just the trauma of an operation. […]

Things have been tough for the past few years but specifically the past 3 months have been absolute shit. I feel like I’ve been in a really dark time, between work, moving house, losing my grandfather, kids and my health, everything has been so overwhelming. Yet I’m starting to have hope that I’m coming through […]
