Skin Cancer Story - Images in Newspapers
Updated: Oct 23, 2021
I was contacted by a PR agency to take photos of a lady with Skin Cancer. I had no idea of the full story, so when she told me the reason for taking the photos, I was in bits, but had to be professional, and concentrate on the reason I was there - to take the photos.
The full story appeared in The Herald

It also appeared in The Press & Journal and The Daily Record

After the photos were published, I read the stories in the newspapers. The reason for the photos was that the lady was receiving a new drug treatment, Nivolumab, which is a new immunotherapy drug. Having seen that, I was delighted to have been part of sharing the story, although it was a bit of a journey getting there.
I hope that she makes a full recovery.
