Today I’ve sung tenor in a Society parish Mass (the quintet ended up a quartet w/ 2 altos & 0 bass, so 2 of us dropped down a part), then sop 1 solo in Haydn’s The Heavens are Telling for #Evensong in my home church. A day full of variety & joyful praise ❤️ And I’ve decided to start #organ lessons!

A wonderful Sunday afternoon listening to the @stalbanscathedral.bsky.social choir in their moon-themed concert and then the joy and privilege of leading and cantoring #Evensong with my wonderful sending church choir. Dyson in D Nunc always makes my spine tingle. Feeling so very blessed 🙏🏼 ❤️ 🎶 🌕

Giving thanks to God for being able to be back in the comfort of my own home. Have to return 2x a day to hospital for IV antibiotics and obs for the next ten days, but it’s worth it. #grateful #Hickmanline #serioussepsis #bilateralbreastcancer #breastcancer #kadcyla #chemo #chemotherapy #cofepeeps

Prayers welcomed my friends as my temp is spiking again as it did Fri night. Back up to 38.4 - 38+ is the danger zone. Hopefully paracetamol will do its job. Pls pray also for B who is in agony in the bay next to me after cancer treatment & in hospital on her 28th bday 😢 #prayerrequest #cofepeeps

Would welcome prayers. Looks like I’ve just started on round 2 of septicaemia 🤦♀️ They already know the infection so antibiotics already tailored. This is really scary. But. I am held by God’s perfect, eternal circle ❤️ #cancer #breastcancer #infection #hospital #bilateralbreastcancer #kadcyla #loved

Wide awake on the ward after a new patient is moved into the next bay. And then suddenly, from nowhere, I overhear a profession of thanks & the response, ‘No problem. God is love’. Profoundly moving. God is amidst us, holding us in our trouble and pain. #hospitallife #blessed #chemo #cofepeeps

Asking for prayers for my beloved Polish cousin Alina, who has been admitted to hospital and is not responsive. Closed eyes, does not hear her daughter speaking to her 💔 We are desperately worried. #prayer #cofepeeps

Finally transferred to haematology/oncology ward @ 5am. So relieved. Trolley beds are uncomfortable! V happy w/ my large 2-bed room on a modern ward w/ its own loo, next to a window which opens.

Super concert last night - I managed all of it. Grateful to be able to sit when I wasn’t singing. My best bit was definitely ‘In Freezing Winter Night’, when my lovely daughter sang the soprano solo and I sang the alto one ❤️ Such a joyful evening! #chamberchoir #choir #choral #concert #cofepeeps

After more years than I care to remember sitting in the choir stalls, today I led Evensong for the first time. What a privilege. Love being cantor. And my new worsted wool cassock fit & was toasty warm, even despite no church heating. Hurray. Feeling so blessed tonight ❤️ #evensong #cofepeeps
