The interior designer says her diagnosis is a"cautionary tale" and that missing the routine appointments was a"foolish thing to do".Former Dragons' Den star Kelly Hoppen has revealed she was diagnosed with breast cancer after eight years of avoiding mammograms.
Writing in the Daily Mail, Hoppen said she could not believe her"own stupidity" after missing the routine appointments and said it was a"foolish thing to do". As she was getting older, Hoppen said she thought she had less of a chance of developing the disease and had"dodged the bullet". "At the time I couldn't cope with her illness and my strategy was to blank everything out," Hoppen said.
