What the petition asks

I want every women referred to a breast clinic with a lump in there breast to have a biopsy rather than an ultrasound so they can be told 100% if the lump is cancerous.

My wife went to a breast clinic with a lump in her breast where the consultant only did a ultrasound and not a biopsy. She was told it definitely wasn't cancer. They never did anymore investigating in to her lump as they didn't think it was cancer. Three years later the same lump got a biopsy and it was cancer. My wife lost her life because she didn’t get a biopsy to tell us 100% if it was cancer.
