.....I'm the next lingerie model! I got some very exciting new yesterday. Marks and Spencers contacted Breakthrough breast cancer to ask me if I would model for their post-surgery lingerie range. Obviously I have said yes to this amazing opportunity. It could not have come at a better time. I had my last bit of reconstructive surgery 2 months ago and am much happier with the way my breast looks. My nipple was way too big and my implant was pushing itself up, which is not a natural way a breast normally heads! My amazing surgeon made my nipple smaller and lowered the implant. It looks so much better. Not perfect as it never will be but its definitely the best its ever going to look, so I am very happy. Being asked to model for M&S's post-surgery lingerie range is going to be a huge confidence boost for me. When I have looked at models in underwear and bikinis I have always thought how lucky they are to have their natural breasts and knowing mine will never be the same again...
I was diagnosed with breast cancer just after my 29th birthday last year. I found the lump by accident as I never examined myself. I like many people thought I was invincible. I have had a mastectomy and have undergone chemotherapy and radiotherapy and am taking hormone treatment for the next 5 years. The worst is now over and I am waiting for my reconstruction.
