The doctor there that I saw, the Consultant, he did the ultrasound scan and he kept on saying "it doesn't look good" and I think from there, I more or less knew that I had cancer. But I still didn't want to believe it at the time, you know, he said "it just doesn't look good, it doesn't look good" and then he said "OK, I want you to go for a needle biopsy, a mammogram and see what they find there".
But that couldn't be done until the afternoon, so we had to go back in the afternoon to the hospital and they told us to go back on Thursday to have the results. When we went back on the Thursday, in the room was sitting the doctor, the Macmillan Nurse, and there were some medical students there as well and I just looked and I thought "no, something doesn't seem right, it just doesn't" you know "not right at all". I spoke to my husband the day before on the Wednesday and I kept on saying to him "what do you think, what do you think?" and he was like, he's had an open mind all the way, you know, he wouldn't believe it, he said "I'm keeping an open mind".
