Breast cancer: “I said to myself: ‘Great, my children will never know me.'”, recalls blogger Emilie Daudin, now in remission

The blogger Emilie Daudin (EmilieBrunette) just published In my breast to talk about her breast cancer. When she had just given birth to her second child, she noticed a lump in her right breast, a muscle tear for the medical profession. “It’s the first thing they told me said which reassured me. I said to myself : ‘You make films. Everything is fine’. Except it continued to grow and a few months later I had excruciating pain that lasted. I went back to see the midwifery office that was treating me and I got the same diagnosis. […] Nine months after the first diagnosis, everything collapses”says this fashion enthusiast in 12/13 info, Friday October 6.

“It’s going to be okay”, a sentence that annoys

At that time, she did a breast ultrasound to check, then a mammogram and biopsy. “A week later, I learned that I had six tumors in my breast and that it was triple negative breast cancer”explain Emilie Daudin, who had no prior history. She remembers : “I said to myself : ‘Greatmy children will never know me.‘ […] That was terrible for me.”

It is still the second cause of death in France.” Three years later, the blogger is now in remission and assures that there is a “After” there disease.
