A 36-year-old woman who had “warning dreams” as a child that she was going to get cancer has been diagnosed for a second time just weeks before she was due to celebrate being cured. Abi Galatia was diagnosed with breast cancer after winning her decade-long battle with a “very aggressive” and rare type of bone cancer during which she underwent 68 rounds of chemotherapy.
But while cancer may come as a shock to many people, on both occasions, Abi, who lives in Bristol, says she had dreams forewarning her diagnosis and the “dark times” which were to come. The same happened before her mum was diagnosed with cancer and died in 2010, says Abi, who now gets “really upset” whenever she gets a bad feeling about someone.
While Abi claims to have “always known” that she was going to beat the first cancer, the trauma has left her with a “bad feeling” about her recent diagnosis and the side effects of starting chemotherapy again, which could leave her infertile. “It has been relentless and it feels like there’s a curse over my life, I just need a break,” she said.
