Jenna Wareing found a suspicious lump in her breast in September 2022 and this led to a shocking diagnosis of stage three breast cancer.

After being told she had just six months to live, a mum of three says she's determined to "defy the odds" of her cancer diagnosis.

Doctors have told Jenna that without treatment she has just four to six months to live. But the 33-year-old refuses to give up, saying: "I want to defy the odds and I will, and I believe that. I will be in control of my living and how I live. I'm not going to let cancer control how I live my life. I don't want to be at home in bed, unable to do things. I want to do everything I possibly can to see my kids grow up.

She said: "I feel so weak. With all the treatment I've had, I wanted to take some time out with my family to decide what's right for us and for me. I've been looking into alternative ways that I can support my body while fighting.

She also extended her thanks to Liverpool-based charity LARKS, the Marina Dalglish Appeal, which supports women living with breast cancer. She said: "You're around people who are in the same mental and emotional state as yourself. No matter what group you're in, there's that support there. They understand the effects of what treatment can do; they have that experience of how they feel, how they look.
