Olivia Newton-John, a 69-year-old actress, known for her main role in the musical "Grease", announced a few days ago that she is struggling with cancer again, for the third time.

Bad news

A few days ago, in the "Sunday Night" program, the actress admitted that she had recently heard for the third time in her life that she had cancer. The message she heard from the doctor was: "breast cancer in the most advanced stage, with metastases around the spine." However, the diagnosis did not demotivate Olivia from fighting, because as she added: I have been fighting cancer for over 25 years. I will win in the end. This is my objective.

That's not the first time

In fact, the actress first found out in 1992 that she had cancer. Back then, her reaction was not as bold and positive as it is now. At the first diagnosis, the patient was sure that her days were numbered and that cancer was a disease that was killing everyone. Her struggle lasted until 2013, when she heard a second time that the disease had returned. Five years later, the tumor struck a third time.

Support for others

During her illness, the artist also decided to help others in their fight against cancer. She has founded a therapeutic and research center of her name in Australia to support people with cancer.

What now?

Currently, after the diagnosis, the actress immediately underwent radiation, but she also does not give up the help of natural medicine and supports her treatment with medical marijuana and natural therapies. As she says, she hopes this is the last time she has to overcome the disease. Additionally, in the "Sunday Night" program she added that the word "fight" is inappropriate here. She believes that the disease and overcoming it is her mission, which she hopes to accomplish.
