2022. May or June, I first went to the hospital with the lump in my breast. And they did an
00:12
ultrasound, but said that it's just fibrous tissue because my age, it's nothing to be
00:18
concerned of. And they never said if it gets bigger, come back if it gets harder, come
00:24
back, nothing like that. But December, I noticed it was getting bigger and harder. So I booked
00:31
a doctor's appointment, went to that in January, they said that they was concerned about it.
00:38
So booked me back in the hospital. And then when I went back, they did another ultrasound,
00:45
then didn't like what they saw. And then they told me that it was curable. And it will just
00:52
be a long year ahead with all the treatment. But then after the scans, they realized that
00:59
it's spread. So said, sorry, it's not curable now. And it first went to my liver. And then
01:08
after some more scans, a few weeks later, it then gone to my spine. And yeah, now it's
01:16
in my pelvis, my lung, my left lung, my right axilla, if that's how you say it. So my right
01:25
shoulder blade. I can't remember where else now. It's in a lot of places. Yeah, when I
01:32
went in June 2022, if they had noticed it straight away, when it was a small lump, then
01:40
yeah, it wouldn't have been in my organs by then. It would have just been a case of probably
01:44
a lumpectomy, chemo, and then sorted. But yeah, once it's spread, there's not much they
01:53
can do. So they say.
