Breast Cancer screening services resumed yesterday, but there are concerns that it could take up to 3 years to clear the backlog of those awaiting mammograms.

Lorraine Redmond, breast cancer survivor diagnosed by routine mammogram and Jennifer Cimerman Director of Communications with the Marie Keating Foundation joined Andrea on the show.
