Woman, 35, who twice survived breast cancer, reveals her scars in inspirational naked shoot.
A two-time breast-cancer survivor has posed naked for Cosmopolitan magazine in a bid to inspire other women.
Hannah Foxley, who recently had a mastectomy, says she wants to show women you can still be beautiful even when you’ve had parts of your body removed.
The 35-year-old said her world turned upside down when she found a lump in her breast in April 2011.
'I was grieving for my father, Bill, who’d died five months earlier, when I found a lump in my breast and was diagnosed with cancer.
'It was like being hit by a train. It didn’t feel real. Like most young women, I thought I was invincible,' she told the fashion magazine.
She had a lumpectomy and eight cycles of gruelling chemotherapy. Then, a week before her treatment was due to end, she found a second cancerous lump.
She had a mastectomy, followed by five weeks of radiotherapy.
Speaking to MailOnline, she said: 'It was difficult. Losing something that is so key to your femininity takes a lot of coming to terms with.'
