Sue Higgins noticed several physical changes in the months before a breast cancer diagnosis in late 2024. She observed a change in her right nipple and experienced an itch, symptoms that were initially attributed to menopause or perimenopause. The diagnosis came as a shock and required time off work for treatment. After treatment, she felt nervous about returning to employment. An online programme run by Trinity College Dublin provided support during her transition back to work. The programme offered practical and emotional assistance that helped her manage anxiety and rebuild confidence for workplace reintegration.
