YOU SAY

Coleen, I felt I had to write to you about your personal heartache over your sister Linda’s cancer returning. I know from experience how devastating cancer can be as I lost my lovely sister Teresa to it, aged 31.

She became ill at 27 after she’d had her third child. At the time, they didn’t detect it, saying it was a blocked milk duct – but eight months later she was diagnosed with breast cancer.

I know lots of your readers will have faced similar battles themselves or felt the heartache of seeing a loved one become ill, so I just wanted to share my story to let you know that you’re not alone. I wish Linda well and hope she beats it.
