Kylie Minogue has breast cancer

Ladies, take a minute tonight to do a self exam. Gents – give them a hand 😉 after all I know a few women who didn’t find the lump themselves – it was their husbands.

I was astounded when my mother was first diagnosed at the women who came to visit her in hospital, all with their own stories. Most are living well and have healthy bodies. It’s not the end – but catching breast cancer early is really, really, important.
