I remember telling my coworker I had to leave, recognizing that he instantly knew what I had learned; I remember seeing a sunset so beautiful that words don't do it justice, as if grandma was telling me, "I'm better now," on my way back to the hotel, where I'd spend hours crying, wishing I could see her one more time, wishing I could squeeze cancer like a rotting orange, ridding this earth of its putrid juices.

Maura Derrane has been on our screens for three decades and has spent the last 14 co-hosting the 'Today' show with Dáithí Ó Sé - she talks to Kirsty Blake Knox about the programme's success and why Christmas is hard after losing her sister to cancer For many experiencing grief and loss, Christmas can be a challenging time.

Spurred by her mother's diagnosis, she had her first mammogram a couple days earlier, and it had turned up a suspicious spot. Now she needed a second, diagnostic mammogram, and likely a biopsy. She found herself walking a surreal sort of tightrope, caught between relief that her mother's treatment was over and fear that she might soon be starting her own.

Breast cancer patients suffered unnecessary mastectomies, delayed diagnoses and a lack of compassionate care at an NHS Trust in north-east England, the BBC has learned. More than 200 cases are now being investigated at County Durham and Darlington Foundation Trust (CDDFT) - 43 of these are reported to involve significant harm. One death is also being examined. Women have told us they were left feeling "butchered" by surgery,

I want to give my deepest thanks to the amazing medical teams who've looked after me, and to my family and friends for their love, strength, and support. I couldn't do this without them. I also want to say a huge thank you to my bandmates, crew, manager, and everyone at Today FM for standing by me and keeping everything moving while I focus on getting well. Your support means the world,

June 1, 2021 I just finished leading a wellness retreat in Sedona. Six months earlier, I had lost my mother. Two weeks before, I had ended an eight-year relationship. Finally, I was beginning to feel like a phoenix rising from the ashes. I felt as though I was on top of the world and standing in Love. My intuition whispered, "Not quite yet." I quickly squelched that feeling. I recall thinking, "How much worse can things get?"

I have had breast cancer. I found a lump a few weeks ago. It came and went but then I was working on The Masked Singer and Lorraine, the TV show, and Lorraine Kelly had put signs on the backs of all the doors saying check your breasts' and every time I went for a wee I did that. It was still there, and then one morning I saw myself in the mirror and thought I'm going to get that looked at'.

If more than half a century ago, science looked expectantly at the potential of chemotherapy to combat cancer; or 15 years ago, oncologists did the same with immunotherapy, which energized the immune system's own defenses to attack tumor cells; now the spotlight has turned to an innovative treatment that is reaping promising results: antibodydrug conjugates (ADCs), treatments that function like a Trojan horse, delivering chemotherapy to the interior of tumor cells to destroy them.

Kutler shared the news during an internal editorial call on Wednesday morning, according to CNN's media correspondent Brian Stelter, after first informing the network's leadership and speaking privately with several of MSNBC's top anchors. In a candid message, Kutler used the moment to urge colleagues to take their own wellbeing seriously. Take care of yourselves and your health, she told staff, adding that self-care was vital even in the midst of an unprecedented news cycle.

"Diane passed away peacefully at Memorial Sloan Kettering Hospital-surrounded by friends and family-after a long battle with breast cancer,"

For years, I had been teaching people about radical acceptance - not rejecting pain, but recognising pain as a part of reality right now, and learning how to live with it. Even though I initially questioned "why me?" I immediately shifted to "what now?" Cancer was happening , and it was one of the challenges I was going to have to deal with. I was going to get through this journey coming from a place of peace and gratitude, rather than fear.

I thought, okay, I'm going to go through the doors of Princess Margaret with all my heart. I remember that day so well. And I walked through the doors and a feeling of comfort overcame me. And I started thinking, you know what, I'm going to look at this place as my temple of healing. If you can't change the situation, change your mind. I've always believed that.

Unfortunately, I have to have a second surgery, nothing too serious, but it has to be done before the end of the year, and unfortunately that falls right in the middle of a tour that I had booked. Jessie J had been due to perform in the UK and Europe in October and in the US in November. She said the UK and Europe dates would be rescheduled to April 2026, while the US tour had been cancelled.

Sing for the Cure is a moving song cycle for mixed SATB chorus and orchestra that weaves together real-life stories from breast cancer patients, survivors, and their loved ones.

"As it turns out, there's a lot of great ideas being pitched to Rec and Park for all kinds of new programs, new spaces. But it is really incumbent on those groups to have that commitment. And BAYS was 1,000% committed."
