Episode 16 - Cancer With Gratitude Ft. Lynsey Bennett

Not a Single Bother - A podcast by Aislinn Dowling

Categories:

On this week's episode I am so buzzing to have a very special guest on with me, the lovely Lynsey Bennett. Lynsey is one of many women in Ireland who has been affected by the consistent wrongful reading of her smear test results and is now battling terminal, invasive cervical cancer. She is only 32 years of age and a mother to two gorgeous girls. Lynsey is beyond inspirational, even though she can't see it herself, and is helping so many people by documenting her journey through her Instagram page @cancerwithgratitude. We chat about so many different things from everything she has faced from 2009 until now, how important it is to trust your own gut, always push for the answers you deserve and to know your own body. While having so many curve balls thrown at her and even though many others would be filled with anger because of the wrongdoings, she discusses how the book, The Magic, has taught her that anger has no benefit in this situation and gratitude is the way forward. I will let the podcast do the rest of the talking because Lynsey's story really speaks for itself. I hope you enjoy the episode x Lynsey's Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/cancerwithgratitude/ My smear test blog post: https://aislinn-dowling.com/lifestyle-1/2020/1/20/smear-tests-yb5ha Instagram: @aislinndowling Facebook: @dowlingaislinn Twitter: @dowlingaislinn Website: aislinn-dowling.com
