A mum living with terminal cancer has told how she hopes to live long enough to make memories her daughter can remember. Two years ago Nina Lopes was given the all clear by doctors after being treated for breast cancer.
The 36-year-old had already faced a long fight after she first found a lump only to be told it was nothing with one doctor saying "young women have lumpy breasts". However after months of going backwards and forwards to the doctors she was diagnosed with primary triple negative metastatic breast cancer.
The mum, from Croydon, underwent successful treatment - but says she always thought it could return. Sadly her fears were realised and in August last year she was diagnosed with stage 4 triple negative metastatic breast cancer, My London reports.
