Avril Dalziel Saunders Mammogram's Save Lives

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in March 2011. I felt well, had no symptoms, had never smoked, ate a healthy diet and exercised regularly, so how could this be? There was no explanation, it can happen to anyone!

I have written my story in order to raise awareness and encourage every woman between the ages of 50 and 70 to go along for a mammogram. In the UK, the NHS offers this service free to women every three years but sadly 25% do not attend.
