After your breast cancer diagnosis, did you find it difficult to talk to your family and friends because of religious or cultural beliefs? For example, is there a belief in your community cancer can be caught, or is a curse? If you live in the south of the UK and would be interested in sharing your experience of this with the media, email press@breastcancercare.org.uk by 18 March to find out more.
Best wishes,

No, it shouldn’t be hard. I don’t think it is related to religion, and it is more a genetic thing. So, talk with your relatives as fast as possible to get rid of this disease and feel healthy and happy about yourself and your life. I am a Christian, and in my religion firstchurchlove.com, we accept what is happening to us and try to get rid of bad things related to us when we notice them. But, as I said, you have to accept yourself first and your issues. Then, slowly and qualitatively, get rid of those issues as time goes by. I have gone through this many times, so don’t worry.
