Hi all,
Today's post is a share of a newspaper article by the brave young woman Kris Hallenga of the breast cancer charity Coppafeel http://www.coppafeel.org/. Here's the link http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/features/i-never-ask-my-doctor-how-long-ive-got-23yearold-kristin-hallengas-health-crusade-to-warn-women-about-risks-of-breast-cancer-8548853.html. I believe in the same ethos as Kris and would do anything to bring about awareness of breast cancer especially in younger women who are falsely told that breast cancer is an old woman's disease. I was dx having just turned 42 and whilst I am older than Kris (she was only 23 when dx) I still class myself as a younger woman and certainly didn't anticipate or contemplate in any shape or form developing breast cancer it was the furthest thing from my mind.
