Burst PIP implant ‘gave my breast-fed girl cancer’

Horrified mum's claim

Tragic ... Lucy Petagine with five-year-old Luna

A DISTRAUGHT mother whose PIP implant exploded while she was breast-feeding fears it could have caused her daughter's cancer.

Lucy Petagine's five-year-old daughter Luna was diagnosed with an incurable brain tumour at just 18 months.

Medics say they can't rule out a link between her breast implants — made with industrial-grade silicone designed to be used as mattress filler — and Luna's illness.
