“I had been going to the doctors with a pain in my ribs and after being wrongly diagnosed with pleurisy.
“I was dealt the devastating blow that not only did I have breast cancer, but that it had already spread to my lymph nodes, bones and liver.
“I struggled to comprehend how this had been going on in my own body without me knowing.
