'At the time of my breast cancer scare I kept my fears to myself.
I was trying to be brave, and I went to my ppointments alone, but that only made the
problem bigger in my head. When I shared it with my mum and my best friend I felt
immediately relieved.It’s important that you don’t face breast cancer alone –
be open and honest with those that care for you, because you will need their support.’

Geri’s advice:
If you have any breast health concerns don’t delay in getting yourself checked out:
go immediately to your doctor.
Women by their very nature are reluctant to put themselves first,
but when it comes to your health you have to! |
