'At the end of the day, I'm living proof that if it is caught early you can be saved.'
A woman from Co Down has spoken about how she owes her life to early screening after she was diagnosed with breast cancer during lockdown.
Attending a screening on March 2, 2021, Sinéad said she "thought nothing of it" initially. But two weeks later, she received a letter from the charity saying something was detected in her right breast and further investigation was required. "I remember feeling my husband's hand rubbing my back, and I remember saying to the consultant, 'Are you telling me I have breast cancer?' and she said 'Unfortunately, yes, that's what it looks like.'
She said: "We were encouraged to tell our family when we got home from hospital. I got in the car and said to my husband, how are we supposed to go home and tell the children I have cancer? I couldn't even think about telling them. Sinéad said: "It was still terrifying, and I'm the sort of person who goes down the darkest path, so I went online and scared the life out of myself. I had six weeks of counselling through Action Cancer too which made a massive difference.
