A MUM says her boob job saved her life â because it revealed she had breast cancer.
Rebecca Craggs had implants last October but when she removed her bandages, she felt a lump on her right breast.
The mum of two, 53, got it checked by her GP and was diagnosed with cancer in December.
Surgeons removed the half-inch lump and told Rebecca the cancer had not spread.
She was then given the all-clear after some radiotherapy.
The former marketing executive, of Birmingham, said: âIâm just counting my lucky stars I had the boob job.
âIt was the implants that pushed the lump Âforward.
âI could have been wandering around not knowing I had it thinking that 15 months ago my mammogram was clear and I wasn’t due another one for another two years.
âIt definitely could have saved my life.
âIt saved it from progressing to further stages and ending up in my lungs, liver or whatever.”
