Last night, I went to my sister’s house to look at her newly installed hot tub cover but all the excitement died after I get to know one of our cousin just being diagnose with breast cancer.

Instead of talking about her new toy, we talked about cancer instead. It is so pity and my heart goes to that family.  My sister told me that our cousin knew about it long time ago but she never bother to go and check with the hospital.  She thought it was nothing serious. Instead she turn to “ubat kampung” trying to cure the pain she felt. Oh goshh….how can she be so naive?

I guess she’s not naive but scared to know the truth until it is too late to cure.  So ladies, please…if you ever discover a lump on your breasts, be brave, go to your nearest hospital. Get it check.  Having a lump doesn’t mean you are having breast cancer.  No. It might be just a lump which is not cancerous.

I did and still have lump on my breast. I remove one years ago. I too was panic and scared but I only can thank God that it is not.  And when I got pregnant with my first child, my doctor  detected another lumps. Yes, lumps in plural.  I was asked to check it on the spot. Again, thank to God, it were just a normal lump which is not cancerous. Thank to God for that.

My advice to all women out there, please do not be afraid. Be strong and be brave. Get yourself check today.  God bless you all  and God bless my cousin. May she be strong during this time. She is diagnose cancer stage 4. Not really good news eh?
