About me and The finding

Hi all, my name is Wendy Mills. I was born as Wendy Horsfall and grew up in a small town named Kempsey in NSW, Australia. I moved to Qld in 2002 and have been here since. I have 4 wonderful children and a wonderful supportive husband. I wanted to share my story and hope that anyone going through similar can take some kind of comfort or even just know they are not alone in there thoughts and feelings.

The Finding    (10/2017)

Over the following few weeks I kept using oils and creams to check if it was still there and each time I half expected it to be gone but this wasn’t the case. Eventually I asked my husband to rub some cream into my breast and see if he could feel anything out of place and he did find it, and wasn’t sure what it was but said it felt different to the other breast in the bottom inner quarter

I went in for a mammogram first on some new and fancy 3D mammogram machine. I was then sent up for them to do ultrasound and to do ...
