mind you, it doesn’t mean i wasn’t sewing.
during chemo, i was so determined to do something even though i felt so weak, i sewed a whole tunic by hand.
yes, i raw-dogged a whole garment like i was some Edwardian seamstress in the downstairs quarters.
but i got it done 😁
but didn't even get to wear it whilst in therapy because, while most people lose weight during chemo, i put it on. so i had a few clothes i’d wear those 2 years. one pair of jeans, my patches jeans became even a joke…

so last week, but for my bag, shoes and compression bra, everything i was wearing i made in these 2 cancer-free LongCOVID-free years. and one of the radiologists noticed. when she asked me were i bought my palazzo culottes ―which i made in such a way it looks like a Dior New Look skirt―, and i told her i made it, she didn't even miss a beat: i had no idea you were a fashion designer. FAM: almost burst out in ugly sobs, and she wasn’t even pancaking my boob on the mammo machine…
