Cancer survivor Cath Hayes on her bodybuilding journey

A CANCER survivor has said bodybuilding helped her feel more like a woman after a "botched" total mastectomy left her with confidence issues.

Fitness instructor Cath Hayes fell into depression after the loss of her daughter and her diagnosis in 2013.

But the bodybuilder, who describes the on-stage feeling as "incredible", said the sport helped her reconnect with the person she was before falling ill.
