oH K I am not sure can afford this swap but will give it a try as i'm about to go through radium for my breast cancer. So Hay all my friends on here please think of me and join as you don't know how scary it is till it happens to you.

And girls not just check 4 lumps never let your mamagrames lapse as mine was not a lump to start you could feel but my 2 yearly mamograme picked it up.

Even our older ladies when they say you don't need to have one anymore tell them yes I shall as at 86 my great Aunt has just been digignosed with breast cancer. So say no I will continue I'm not risking my life course i'm older.

There are so many of us out there with breast cancer and we need your support . Buying cancer itrems will help greatly.

Hi I feel bad doing this but with my finances being bad at the mo I just can't afford to follow through with it. But all my trips into city 4 appointments are breaking me. I so wish i could afford to stay in as such a good course.
