Breast cancer survivor's ride to good health
Breast cancer survivor Janet Petter is cycling the length of New Zealand to raise money for breast cancer research, and hopes to inspire others going through the illness not to give up.
The Hutt based nurse battled through “nine months of gruelling treatment” that it took her two years to recover.
But she had a second wind following her diagnosis and double mastectomy, and hopes her story will encourage others.
