Mortal And Strong - Voice No. 75 - Pretti

Our latest voice - and number 75 out of 100 - is the beautiful and bright smiling soul that is Pretti. Pretti shares with us her experience of invasive ductal breast cancer. We interviewed Pretti just as she was finishing active treatment - a very poignant moment where many people think/presume because active treatment has finished that the individual is 'finished' with cancer and ready to 'move on' back to life. Pretti provides a beautifully honest and optimistic example of how this moment in the cancer pathway is actually, for some, as important as the active treatment. The point in time where the realisation of the enormity of the impact begins to set in, and the reflections happen and the mind begins to process the life changing diagnosis. Pretti shares all this with us and how finding a way to share this with her children, taking her health into her own hands with exercise has been so crucial for her.

Thank you to Pretti for being another wonderful Voice bringing joy into our Scars of Gold campaign. Scars of Gold is a health awareness campaign sharing the voices of 100 women facing their mortality at a young age with life changing or incurable health conditions. Produced by the charity @mortalandstrong (No. 1209448)
