As a breast cancer survivor I think it’s important to add my story. Not because of ego either. I had a fatty lump almost between my breasts. Slightly on the inner edge of my right breast. It was not attached or hard. It literally felt like a blob of fat. Doc sent me for a mammogram and ultrasound. Tests results said inconclusive. I had a VERY GOOD GP. He didn’t like inconclusive because it had to be something. Sent me to a specialist. In the end I had a mammogram, 2 ultrasounds, an X-ray & a biopsy. Pathology from the biopsy said ‘sebaceous cyst’ a fat lump! I decided to get it cut out anyway. Had my day surgery. Went back a week later for my follow up. Turns out the whole thing was a cancer!! 4 cm in diameter. If I’d left it I would’ve died. 4 days later I had a complete mastectomy, 15 lymph nodes removed, chemo & radiation then tablets for 5 years! My advice. Always get it cut out. Always. Better to have a tiny scar and it’s nothing, than leave it until it’s too late. 💖

God, thank you for deliverance from all wickedness, from death, from disease and from murder, strife, endless debate, madness, debauchery, violence, uncleanness, from pollution, from bitter waters, from famine, from pestilence, from disease, from unending heart brokenness and from perceived failures and from immediate threats and from doing nothing. I pray for energy to do the things that need to be done and to be still when I need to be still. Thank you God for being my compass for all of my days and my strength and my shield and my refuge in times of trouble and distress In Jesus mighty name. Amen 🙏 🤍
