'It was supposed to be such a happy time': Mum, 45, diagnosed with incurable cancer days before her wedding
A bride-to-be was diagnosed with incurable cancer just days before her wedding. Mum-of-three Sarah Bamber, 45, found a lump on her breast before she was set to walk down the aisle.
She said she had also lost a significant amount of weight, which had prompted alarm bells to ring. A doctor's visit last year and later biopsies confirmed Sarah's fears and breast cancer was diagnosed.
Further investigation showed tumours had been there for some time and had spread to her liver and bones. Sarah was told that although her cancer could be treated, it couldn’t be cured and she was given a prognosis of between five and eight years.

"We never say the treatment will make me better or anything like that, as you never want to say something that’s not true.
