A Leeds woman was diagnosed with a "one in a million" cancer after finding a lump in her right breast while she was on holiday.
Perri Rowe made the worrying discovery in August 2020 and rushed to book a doctor's appointment as soon as she returned to the UK. Aged 21 at the time, she was referred to a breast clinic and doctors were initially convinced the lump was non-cancerous due to its size.
As it was half a centimetre bigger than what is considered to be a normal lump, she was sent for further testing. A few weeks later, just before her 22nd birthday, Perri received the devastating news that she had rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare type of cancer that forms in soft tissue.
