out in front of everyone! He made comments about my
            mental illness, he refused to give me any info about the
            radiotherapy, he said I had a 50 50 chance of the cancer
            coming back - then he said it was a 60% chance, then he
            said it was "highly likely", He got my name and my title
            wrong.  He  seemed  to  know  nothing  about  what
            treatment  I  already  had  and  he  shouted  at  me  and  got
            angry n was really rude and patronising until, in the end, I
            had to get up n walk out! My Mom was virtually in tears

           So effing fed up with looking shite I could cry, overweight,
            "moon-faced",  fuzzy  headed,  scarred  boobed  with  skin
            covered in sores and rashes and bruises. FuhFoxayke. I’m
            exhausted with it.
           I had to take steroids while I was going through the chemo
            and they make you gain weight and your face swells up.
            When  I  looked  at  the  patient  information  leaflet  under
            side  effects  it  said  "May  cause  Moon  Face"  Ha!  In
            brackets  (round  swollen  face)  I  thought  what  a  weird
            thing to call it! Next they’ll be calling the hair loss "egg
            head" or something.

           Ladies, when you "change hand bags" and order a round
            of  drinks  then  try  to  pay  with  a  Block  Buster  Video
            membership card  .... Or is that just me?

           Having been battling breast cancer for the past 7 months I
            have seen more than my fair share of pink balloons and
            streamers.  Lots  of  frilly,  glittery  and  most  of  all
