"2 week’s after my surgery and we’re due to move house on Friday.  We have nothing packed and the removal firm have just called to cancel on us because last night Scotland went into lockdown and Covid-19 has moved from background noise to centre stage...I keep having moments when I drift off only to suddenly snap-to and the memory of my diagnosis and everything which has subsequently happened comes flooding back into my consciousness and I’m breathless with the shock of it all. Each time it feels like waking up to realise the nightmare is real.  I still don’t recognise myself in the role of cancer victim but now I have to add Covid dodger and mover-under-lockdown to that unfathomable mantle..."

Searingly honest, heart-breaking, often sweary and laugh out loud funny, LUMP is one woman’s rollercoaster ride through the mind meltdown which comes with learning you have breast cancer. 

Utterly human and compelling, it’s a unique story which will resonate with anyone and everyone who’s ever had a battle with a life changing event in their lives.
