Rowena Kincaid: Cancer patient attacks Facebook over 'censorship'
A terminally ill woman has hit out at Facebook after a “potentially life-saving” photograph showing one of her nipples was removed from her page.
Rowena Kincaid, who has secondary stage-four breast cancer, said the decision to remove the image could prevent thousands people from learning about the symptoms of the disease. When she was diagnosed in October 2013, she was told she had three to six months to live. The picture editor, from Cardiff, initially defied doctors’ expectations but her health is now deteriorating.
Ms Kincaid, 40, who has made a BBC documentary entitled Before I Kick the Bucket, runs a public Facebook page of the same name on which she posts information about her experiences of living with breast cancer. The page, which has more than 10,000 likes, has become a valuable resource for people affected by the disease and those wanting to learn more.
