Activity 2: Michelle’s story
Michelle is 38 years old and lives with her partner Peter. They have two children aged 9 and 12.
Michelle was diagnosed 2 years ago with triple negative breast cancer, a particularly difficult cancer to treat as it is negative for oestrogen receptors, progesterone receptors and HER2. She had initial treatment but has recently been experiencing a nagging cough and slight breathlessness.
Michelle goes to her GP to get things checked out.
