My Boob Tried to Kill Me!
What happens when life throws you into the middle of chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy, sepsis, and fear… and you answer back with humour?
In this heartfelt, honest, and unexpectedly funny talk, Lisa Jane Holman shares the deeply personal story behind her book, My Boob Tried to Kill Me!, a candid journal written during her battle with breast cancer.
With warmth, wit, and complete honesty, Lisa takes audiences through the reality of cancer treatment: the chaos of chemotherapy, the emotional rollercoaster of diagnosis, multiple hospitalisations with sepsis, the isolation of illness, and the moments that tested her strength the most. Yet woven throughout the story is the thing that helped carry her through, humour.
This is not a clinical talk about cancer. It’s a human one.
Audiences laugh, cry, reflect, and leave with a greater understanding of what cancer patients truly experience behind the brave face. Lisa speaks openly about fear, family, friendship, resilience, mental health, and the importance of kindness during life’s darkest moments.
