A mum who was diagnosed with breast cancer during her pregnancy posed for a photoshoot to raise awareness of the disease.
Kimi Maxell was pregnant with her second child in 2013 when she discovered she had breast cancer and had to undergo a double mastectomy.
To celebrate her survival she posed for photographer Nikki Fisher Holmes with the words “I survived” written across her chest, with “so did I” written on her baby bump.
Says Nikki: ‘Kimi bravely battled breast cancer whilst also being pregnant. She did the shoot and bared all to raise awareness.’
Kimi has now almost finished reconstructive surgery and is in remission.
