Still Coding in 2022

I've had a tough go of working as a software developer, but I'm still here. After a year of searching, I got my first job in March 2020. In April 2020 I was diagnosed with breast cancer and was in treatment from June 2020 - May 2021. Then in September, 2021 I was laid off from my job. (I have a new one).

There have been a lot of challenges in this very short time, but I have worked too hard to give up on my passion. I can't wait to see what I do in the future, now that I am healthy and stronger than ever.

What a tough couple of years.
Glad to see you're smiling and have been such a prolific committer.
Well done!
