My Story
as many of you are aware, my mum was diagnosed with breast cancer in the may of 2017. I never thought in a million years that someone so close to me would be diagnosed, I was naive. My mum didn't find a lump or start getting ill. the only reason as to why the cancer was found was due to her mammogram scans. her treatment started very soon after the diagnosis and she went in to have her lump removed fairly quickly. she then started her daily radiotherapy for 3 weeks and now has to take a tablet every day for the rest of her life. I have been very grateful to the fact that my mums cancer was caught early and her chance of it returning is slim, but unfortunately I know the stories for other peoples loved ones are far from happy endings. so I'm not just running it for my mum who is a wonder woman on this planet but also for other peoples families that lives have been taken from them due to this horrible diagnosis.
