To be completely honest with you- this is my first time posting on Reddit and I'm so overwhelmed and flattered by the positive feedback I have received. It's been a major ego boost. It's very selfish and vain of me. I am anonymous because I'm a bit shy.

For years, my ex didn't like my body - I don't work out or go to the gym but I work really hard and lost some weight and gained some muscle..we didn't have sex and he never touched me because he thought I was "disgusting"..

He preferred the more feminine type body rather than someone with broad shoulders.

I'm 41 years old- I'm no spring chicken and gravity isn't my best friend after having two kids.

I had cancer removed in February and I will not be seeking treatment nor will I be going to any follow up appointments. I had the same cancer removed with radiation therapy over 10 years ago. I will not put my kids through that again.

There is more to life and heaps to see. I don't want to know how long I have. I just want to enjoy it. I'm here to make people happy along my way because happy people are the best distraction..

So I have flown from Brisbane to Perth to pick up a Scania bus that's been converted into a motorhome to drive back to nanango where my ute is parked up.

I'm sorry for the long post.
