She shared about her mental and emotional turmoil and how "
life, on the surface, continued as normal, but nothing was normal any more".

"
The period of not knowing prompted a lot of soul-searching. Heart-numbing and indescribable fear, with bouts of faith, resilience, hope, gratitude and positivity," wrote Yeo, who now resides in England with her British risk adviser husband and two children.

"
The period after the surgery with my 'positive prognosis' was surreal, guilty even — friends, acquaintances, the other patients I'd met were not so lucky," she added. "The only option was to live life fully, with gratitude, and a fierce motivation to change — to live cleaner, simpler, kinder, better."

Yeo has collaborated with medical website Medical Channel Asia where she speaks to other breast cancer survivors to promote the importance of early detection.
