A Powerful Journey of Resilience, Healing, and Hope Through Poetry
When Ciara Foskin, a mother and sea swimmer from Ireland, was diagnosed with a rare form of breast cancer in 2024, her world was turned upside down. What began as a life filled with laughter, motherhood, and ocean swims became a battle with hospital appointments, exhausting treatments, and profound loss. But through it all, Ciara found solace in writing—transforming her pain into poetry that speaks to the heart of anyone facing illness, grief, or life’s unexpected challenges.
In this deeply moving collection, Ciara captures the raw emotions of her journey: the fear of recurrence, the frustration of fatigue, and the courage it takes to trust your body again. Her words are a testament to the healing power of creativity and the strength of the human spirit to find light in the darkest times.
