Sneak Peak- Here is a small piece to read from my book

We lost our Mum on Friday, 7th December, 2012. In the same hospital that we lost our sister, Annette. The pain and grief I felt that day is unimaginable. My Mum fought hard to stay, she didn’t want to leave us. I felt alone and lost, the day my mum passed away. My heart remains broken. Less than two months later I found my breast lump and was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. My doctors have told me that it was likely that I had my lump when my Mum passed. It is also possible that the stress of losing Mum caused my breast cancer. My reaction to my diagnosis was always, why did I have to get it now? , why couldn’t I have been given more time to grieve? I believe things happen for a reason and I think now that maybe getting breast cancer was the only way I was able to get through the loss of my mum.
