Well 3.5 mins actually!
Pancreatic Cancer UK asked me if I would talk to my local paper , the Dorset Echo, about my cancer story and I was somewhat taken aback to find myself on the front page last Friday 16/11.
Since then the story has snowballed and on Tuesday I was on BBC Radio Solent, on the Daily Mail online. Yesterday I was in the Times.
To crown it all, yesterday I was asked to be interviewed on BBC South Today http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01nyn8h/South_Today_21_11_2012/
which was interesting but somewhat nervewracking. My surgeon was with me which was fantastic and he explained all the things he?d removed, but the photos were thought too gory for teatime tv! Sally Taylor, who interviewed us was really nice and put us at ease. I even got to sit in her chair to have my make up done.
Before I knew I had cancer I lost loads of weight with Lighter Life and they are going to do an article for their magazine which will involve a ?glamour photoshoot?. They are going to make a donation to the charity my surgeon is very involved in? planets-carcinoid.org
If I google myself (Susan Rostron cancer) I appear in Spanish and on Nigeria online! Goodness knows where I?ll pop up next. Answering the phone is amusing at the moment. 🙂
