A cancer patient says she felt her diagnosis placed her in a lonely "bubble". Vicky Waddington, who was 30 when she was diagnosed with breast cancer, said her friends, though supportive, could not "fully understand" her situation. "You never get a normal life back," she said. "I just feel sometimes I'm in a different world to my friends." This clip is part of the BBC's A Life Less Lonely: a day of programming across the BBC exploring the effects of loneliness across the UK.
