Sally looks back at cancer journey

Looking at Sally Obermeder now, you’d be hard pressed to find anyone who looks as outrageously healthy as she does.

With glowing skin, a beaming smile and amazingly bag-free eyes despite welcoming her second daughter Elyssa last December, the TV star looks a million miles away from the woman who was forced to fight for her life after being diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer in 2011.

Despite where she is now, it’s clear Sally’s dark days are never far from her mind, after she posted an emotional Instagram snap reminiscing about her cancer battle.

Sally, who was diagnosed the day before she gave birth to her daughter Annabelle, shared a photo of the two of them with famed photographer Anne Geddes.

“I was up doing a middle of the night feed and as I often do to help me stay awake, I was scrolling through Instagram,” Sally captioned her post.

“Minutes later I got an email from the amazing Anne Geddes… I was lucky enough to have Anne take a picture of Annabelle and I, when Annabelle was about 3 months old.

“I was so sick and struggling under the trauma of chemo but Anne and her team made us feel totally enveloped in love and for a brief moment I forgot I was sick.”

The 43-year-old goes on to confess that for a long time, the photo represented a devastating time for her, with Anne capturing the “sadness in my eyes”.

But after rediscovering the picture during a recent move, the Daily Edition host is now grateful for the experience she had with the photographer in preserving that particular memory.

“I looked at it somehow with fresh eyes and all I could see was us in a tight bond inside the web that life had spun for us,” she wrote.
