A brave cancer patient has posted a photo of her breast online just days before undergoing a mastectomy.
The post has gone viral with more than 50,000 shares since it first went up on May 11.
In a moving entry alongside the picture, Lisa Royle, 42, said she "never thought I'd post a boob picture on Facebook but I thought I would before it gets chopped off next week."
She warned her female Facebook followers to "take time to look at your boobs" after pointing out how easy to miss the subtle changes to the breast can be.
She said: "So here it is..... This all that I found on my boob.
"Very subtle dimples underneath that could easily be missed when we're all rushing round getting ready in a morning.
"Please take time to look at your boobs. It could save you're life."
Her proud husband Craig Thomas Royle described his wife as an "inspiration" and said "together we can make people aware and kick cancers ass."
Following Lisa's surgery her posted again saying she was "doing really well."
He said: "Bit groggy from the morphine but in good spirits and should be home later this evening. The support has blown us away so a massive thanks to u all "
