The contribution from Lisa involves a Naracoorte doctor who sent her straight away for scans after she presented with her breast “not feeling right”. She could not get all the scans done in Mount Gambier on the same day, so travelled to Adelaide and had all the procedures done there. “The following day the Naracoorte doctors rang with the bad news and made an appointment with Dr McLeay who visits the South East,” Lisa wrote in the submission. “I was lucky I got in the next day, he informed me it was cancer and the next journey starts. “I had more […]
