"I believe that cancer is not a death sentence but

"I believe that cancer is not a death sentence but rather a life sentence... as it teaches you to live. I was diagnosed in 2015 when I was turning 30. I discovered a lump in my breast while taking a shower, but didn’t think too much of it as I was still breastfeeding my 3-year-old son then and assumed it was a blocked milk duct. However, upon getting checked immediately, I was given devastating news – it was ‘the big C’. It was definitely not what I expected, and was the most trying period of my life. No words can describe the feeling, but I took the plunge to not dwell in my sorrow and chose to focus on doing what I can to fight it. The first thing I did was to stop breastfeeding immediately. This was a very difficult, emotional and painful period for my son and I. Until my diagnosis, I was his sole caretaker. I had to learn how to let go and accept help from others as I was weakened from my medical treatment. Coping with cancer and managing the side effects of the treatment I was receiving, while at the same time trying to keep my son happy, healthy and not disrupting his daily routine was the biggest challenge for me. The fear was always there despite how strong my mind was. I slowly started letting go of all the negative thoughts that arose and took baby steps in learning to be a positive and happier person. I refused to let my fear overpower me." In honour of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we're sharing Singaporean mama Neeta Kumari's inspiring story. Click our link in bio to read more.⁠

Spooky season is here! If you need some inspo on how to throw a Halloween party, swipe and check out mama of two @an_expat_in_singapore's awesome Halloween decor. We're obsessed with what she's done to her place... Can we get invited to this party please? 👻 Here are her tips on celebrating Halloween at home:
🎃 Get the kids involved. Use the rainy days or weekends at home to make some fabulous decorations. Once you have a basic set of paints, papers or pens in spooky colours – you are all set to make so much!
🎃 Plan. Your party doesn’t need to go on for hours and hours – decide if you'll be letting kids watch a movie or play fun Halloween games, and factor in snack time on top of everything!
🎃 Trick or Treat – so this is the big one, the one that concerns people the most. There is no denying that Trick or Treating isn’t going to be “normal” again this year, but hiding some candy around the space you have can be just as fun! Why not turn out the lights to make it even more difficult and spooky?
