"Early detection saved my life" ❤️
When Nicole was diagnosed with breast cancer, it came as a particular shock. She was fit, healthy, active, and regularly checked her breasts. Despite having no obvious risk factors, Nicole noticed a change and trusted her instincts. Acting quickly led her to seek medical advice, which ultimately resulted in her diagnosis. By sharing her story, Nicole hopes to encourage others to become familiar with how their breasts normally look and feel. 'Knowing your normal' can help you notice changes early and seek advice from a health professional as soon as possible. 👉 Read Nicole's story and learn more about the importance of breast awareness ❤️ Learn how to complete a breast self-check here 👀 Have you ever noticed a change through self-checking or breast awareness?
