Being a fairly private person, I rarely tell people I’ve had 11* breast lumps, but lately I’ve found the more I open up
the more similar stories I hear in return.
More often than not a girlfriend will casually admit, “Oh, yeah, I found a lump, should I get it checked out?” or “My sister/aunt/mother had one”.

That is why I wrote this blog: for my friends and family. And their friends. And, truth be told, a little for me too. For anyone who is not necessarily dealing with cancer, but is still scared of the unknown lump they just found in their body.
And if you ever do find a lump ---> make an
appointment with your doctor. No dallying. No dancing or skirting around the
issue. Don’t post on a online forum to ask ‘Can someone describe what cancer feels like?’ or do an internet
search to try and self-diagnose.
Just make the appointment and go.
