'I'm living with cancer, not dying – but hair loss never gets easier,' Linda Nolan says
Pop legend Linda Nolan has become as well known for speaking openly and honestly about her breast cancer battle as for her 50-year career in showbiz.
Whether it’s dealing with losing her hair, or the many other debilitating side effects of chemotherapy, the Dublin-born singer insists she’s “living with cancer, not dying from it”. I just think that we’re all more aware of it now because we’re not frightened to talk about it. I work a lot as a celebrity ambassador for Breast Cancer Now and their hope is that by 2050 nobody will die of breast cancer. That’s their aim. They spend millions on research and as [my late sister] Bernie used to say, “Knowledge is power.”There are new treatments coming out all the time. My consultant said to me that we’re in this for a marathon, not a sprint, which I thought was great.
Does your family have the BRCA gene mutation [which makes cells more likely to divide and change rapidly, which can lead to cancer]?
