I had breast cancer 4.5 years ago, no problems since having mastectamy
In January I lost top third of right lung with tyical carciod that was benign. Doing well but have had to change how I do things as I get breathless but managed 3 weeks in Thailand on my own recently [covered by husbands insurance at that time - no longer valid] Had 6 month review yesterday and the team are very happy with my progress.
Now want to take the holiday I had to cancel for the surgery and go to Australia for 8 weeks...
