Prodding my breasts as I stood under the shower, I checked for any changes, bumps and lumps.
I’d had harmless cysts before so I checked often, just to be sure.
And this time I thought I felt something in my left boob.
Out of the shower, I lay on the bed, arm above my head.
I pressed down, having a proper poke around.
‘There’s a huge lump,’ I told my partner Kieran, then 20, that evening in May 2019. ‘It’s the size of a golf ball.’
But I wasn’t too worried, thinking it’d be another benign cyst.
Only this time the GP referred me to the breast clinic
