I recently spoke to a friend I had not seen for about 18 months in that time she had breast cancer and had a mastectomy, as soon as she started telling me that it all started with breast pain I knew what was gonna happen and lo and behold every day I am crippled with breast pain. Even though I KNOW it is only because she said it. But what can I do go through life not speaking to anyone? As soon as he started to tell me I wanted to say 'please stop' but you cant can you?

Oh this bloody bloody thing - it s driving me mad
