The family of a young farmer who was diagnosed with breast cancer while seven months pregnant have shared her brave battle as they get set to hold a charity fashion show in Newcastle.
Aimee Carlisle, 26, alerted her GP after finding a lump in her breast and was told it was likely to be a blocked milk duct as a result of her pregnancy. However, after raising concerns with midwives, she was referred to hospital to get it checked out.
After undergoing a biopsy and tests, doctors gave Aimee the devastating news that she had grade three breast cancer in November last year. She was 29 weeks pregnant.
