With drastic medical advances being made almost DAILY, I would think this to be a rather EXTREME anecdote.......

Very true in this country, but this is from the UK where she has to deal with a socialist medical system, detecting breast cancer even at an early stage may still be a death sentence, if she has to wait years for treatment.

Have you thought about what you've just said?
This lady is going to have her breasts removed without having anything wrong with them. They don't DO that on the NHS. (National Health Service). This is a private medical op.

If she can afford to get this done privately. She can afford to get regular breast screening done privately.

Socialist medicare doesn't enter into it.
