Lumps & Bumps

Lumps & Bumps, It's a horrifying shock when you first discover one in your own body. You never in your life think seriously that you would become a victim to this word "cancer" that is so commonly talked about and is a curing right here in our own backyards. They say in 10 years there will be an increase of 15% of people diagnosed with breast cancer...That's a shocking prediction and why/ what causes this up rise??? I have surgery tomorrow and so looking forward to be rid of this 3cm cancer lump hopefully once and for all... Cross fingers.

    Wishing you all the best for your surgery - I had bi-lateral mastectomy in May this year with tissue expanders immediately and found I recovered very well - it is somewhat of a good feeling to have the lumps gone - will be thinking of you. Take care Fiona
