Woman dying from cancer who has lived doing 'everything right' reveals her one huge regret

After being diagnosed with terminal cancer a woman has been candid about how she would have lived her life differently.

31-year-old Amanda Hedges thought she had plenty of time to do all the things she wanted , but like many of us, she pushed these fun exploits further down the to do list.

But her life turned upside down last year when she was diagnosed with cancer after suffering from some mild headaches after increasing her anxiety medication.

"I asked my psychiatrist about it. They weren't bad headaches and went away with Panadol," she said.

However, her world came crashing down when a scan revealed he worst - a cancerous tumor in her brain.

Speaking to FEMAIL, the Brisbane woman explained she has Glioblastoma, an aggressive, terminal brain cancer.

Her cancer is typically seen in 'old people' aged 60 to 80 years old with most living between three and 24 months after diagnosis.

Her first six weeks of treatment included radiotherapy and chemotherapy and left her feeling nauseated and breathless.

This limited amount of time has left Amanda questioning how she wants to live out the rest of her days as well as what she regrets about how she was living before.

She said: "None of my old bosses or colleagues are sitting with me while I do chemo.

"It's my mum and dad and friends that are here supporting me through this.

"I wish I could live again so I could stop worrying about the little things and enjoy myself.

"'I would spend more time with the people who actually mattered, make more of an effort to meet someone and have kids, to travel.

“If I had my time again I would do everything different."

While Amanda can't have a do-over, she has also expressed what she wants to do with some of her final months.

She continued: “I really want to stay at a hotel on the beach and just listen to the waves and forget that I am dying. Forget that I am me. Be someone else for a few days and just relax and have fun.

“I have also always wanted to head back to Australia Zoo and see Robert Irwin do a show. I saw his dad do one when I was a kid but I have always just put off going.

“And I really want to go to an all-you-can-eat buffet. I guess hotels would have that covered.”

As well as this, she has started a GoFundMe in order to have the necessary funds to focus on living life to the fullest.
