Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in November 2020 following a routine mammogram. I had surgery and radiotherapy and got the all clear but at my annual check up it was found in my other breast so had more surgery and radiotherapy . I am cancer free but will need annual checks for the next few years.
The hardest part was having to go to all my appointments alone due to Covid but have had amazing support from family and friends and also Breast Friends and family which is why I have decided to do the Firewalk to raise funds for the Charity.
Any donations no matter how small would be greatly appreciated as the cost of living crisis is having an impact on everyone.
One last thing
Breast cancer is rare in men. There are about 350 men diagnosed each year in the UK. This compares to around 55,000 cases in women. About 1 in 100 (about 1%) of breast cancer cases in the UK are in males. (Information provided by cancer researchuk.org) which is why it is just as important for men to check themselves too.
Thanks for taking the time to read my story.
