My double mastectomy this July led me to write a blog. I outline my journey and decision making process, hoping to put other women at ease.
My names Charley Wood I'm 26 from Manchester. I recently had a preventative double mastectomy to avoid Breast Cancer. Im trying to raise awareness of the genetic mutations which put people such as myself at high risks of developing certain cancers. I also strive to remove the stigma of having your breasts removed, and try to make women feel at ease and confident with their decision and ongoing journey. I have a new venture "Drain Dollies" in which I donate to my chosen charity Genesis who focus their research solely on predicting and preventing breast cancer :)
