00:00Every moment, not empty, not over, not fallen, I'm still who I am.

00:08Welcome back. That, of course, our Change and Check choir performing the number one single,

00:13Golden, from last year. And I'm very sorry to have to share some sad news this morning.

00:18One of our amazing singers, Heather Sawyer, has died from secondary breast cancer,

00:23and Heather was only 50 years old. An astonishing woman. Dr Hilary joins me now.

00:28You know, she was such a huge part of the choir, so passionate about it.

00:32She was a wonderful lady, and she sang at the Palladium with the choir to celebrate

00:38the Change and Check campaign. And, you know, what she would want right now is for us to

00:43celebrate her life, but also to remind women, check themselves, do the self-examination.

00:49If anything has changed, go and see your GP, get it sorted out as soon as possible.

00:53Absolutely. She absolutely would. And we're sending all of our love to

00:56everybody who loved Heather. A very, very special lady. And we'll see you later.
