- How do you keep going when your world falls apart? Can you make a difference and turn a bad thing into a good thing? Is it possible to get your fitness back when treatment ends? To kick off Season 3 of So Now I’ve Got Breast Cancer, I’m speaking to a very special guest, the Olympian Donna Fraser OBE. She’s a quadruple Olympian sprinter who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009 while she was still a professional athlete. She has since been awarded an OBE for her services to equality, inclusion and diversity in the workplace and is a proud ambassador for the charity Breast Cancer Now.

Is there any channel or people addressing the disabled community when they get cancer. This would mean addressing diet primarily- for those who cannot exercise but still want longevity after cancer. Thank you!
Your interview was wonderful - thank you for sharing! One question….in 2009 was endocrine therapy not prescribed widespread? It seems to not be part of treatment, even for DCIS. Maybe I misunderstood and her diagnosis wasn’t hormone positive? Thanks again!
Perhaps amend video or include note in the text to address the fact that at 7:56 you mistakenly call her 'Donna Lewis'.
