Days could make all the difference says Duchess, 64

THE Duchess of York is warning people not to skip cancer health checks as "days could make the difference between life and death".

Sarah Ferguson urged everyone to take action after she was diagnosed with an aggressive form of skin cancer in January.

The Duchess, mother to Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, had a mastectomy due to breast cancer last year.

She revealed her latest cancer diagnosis came thanks to her sister, who urged her not to put off a routine mammogram.
