SCHICKSALE - Guter Ausgang: Junge Mutter freut sich über ihr Baby nach einer Mastektomie in der Schwangerschaft
Suzanne at race for life (PA Real Life/Collect) *** Mum who had a mastectomy whilst pregnant
celebrates Mothers Day with miracle baby she
feared shed never meet
By Jamie Blue Mountain, PA Real Life
A mum who had a mastectomy to remove her left breast at 19 weeks pregnant celebrated
Mothers Day yesterday with her two daughters and the miracle baby boy she feared she
might never meet.
Primary school teaching tutor Suzanne Bell, 40, discovered a lump in her left breast nine
weeks into her pregnancy, as she rubbed Bio-Oil into her body to prevent stretch marks,
but was initially unconcerned, thinking she was "too young to have cancer."
Booking a "just in case" appointment with her GP two weeks later, she was then referred
to Warrington and Halton Teaching Hospitals Breast Clinic, near her home in Warrington,
Cheshire, on April 23.
When she arrived at the appointment with her partner, primary school teacher Craig
Thompson, 31, she still saw it as "a precaution."
But when, after having a physical examination and ultrasound scan, the doctors asked to
take a biopsy - a sample of tissue for closer examination - she suddenly realised, this
could be serious.
"I'd gone from thinking it was absolutely nothing to feeling sick to my stomach with worry
in seconds," said Suzanne, whose daughters Sienna, eight, and Grace, four, are from a
previous relationship.
"Everybody there, including Craig, told me to stop panicking, but I couldn't shake the
feeling that something terrible was going to happen."
And three days later, by which point she was 16 weeks pregnant, Suzanne was invited to
a follow up appointment, where doctors told her she had s tage one breast cancer, saying
they had found a 4.5cm tumour in her left breast.
"I took Grace shopping that morning to take my mind off the appointment," she recalled.
