A SPECIALIST cancer nurse who was diagnosed with breast cancer has said telling her children about the diagnosis was worse than actually having cancer.
Lisa Sanderson was told she had a rare, aggressive type of cancer called neuroendocrine breast cancer within a week of finding a lump.
She underwent an operation to remove the cancer, and remove her lymph nodes, had five rounds of chemotherapy and 23 cycles of radiotherapy.
She has now lent her support to Macmillan’s Living With Cancer and Beyond Programme.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
