What an incredible woman.

A woman who is fighting breast cancer has decided to upload a photo of her breast to Facebook, to warn women to look out for even the smallest signs.

Lisa Royle found a slight dimple under her breast, and following a mastectomy, was diagnosed with breast cancer.

The 42-year old decided to use her story to create awareness though, sharing a photo of the subtle signs she spotted that led to her diagnosis.

Writing in her Facebook post, Lisa warned friends and family:

“Ok so I never thought I’d post a boob picture on Facebook but I thought I would before it gets chopped off next week.
So here it is….. This all that I found on my boob. Very subtle dimples underneath that could easily be missed when we’re all rushing round getting ready in a morning.
Please take time to look at your boobs. It could save you’re life.”

Ok so I never thought I’d post a boob picture on Facebook but I thought I would before it gets chopped off next week….

Following her operation this week, husband Craig called his wife an ‘inspiration’ and assured followers she was doing well following her procedure.
