Breast Cancer as a Teenager

I suppose the title says it all, but I am fourteen and have been diagnosed with breast cancer; I have also have been told that they cannot operate until 16, or perform a mammogram until 16 either... fighting a losing battle against my own body I suppose?

    Hi Inkyfingertips,

    I am so sorry to hear about your breast cancer diagnosis at such a young age. Can you have any treatment in the meantime, or do you have to wait until you are 16 for that too?

    Try to continue to stay as fit as you can and eat a good healthy diet. Is there any cancer in your family, or are you just unfortuate?

    I hope that something can be done to help you before your 16th birthday.


    Kind regards,
