Supermodel Linda Evangelista, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2018 and again in 2022, shared her experiences in an interview. After her first diagnosis, she opted for a bilateral mastectomy, believing she'd overcome the disease. However, upon discovering a lump in 2022, she demanded an aggressive approach from her oncologist. Despite her 'horrible oncotype score' indicating a high risk of recurrence, she maintains an optimistic outlook, stating she's in 'celebration mode' and cherishes her life and upcoming book release as significant achievements.
"It was detected in my annual mammogram. The margins were not good, and due to other health factors, without hesitation, because I wanted to put everything behind me and not to have to deal with this, I opted for a bilateral mastectomy."
"Dig a hole in my chest. I don't want it to look pretty. I want you to excavate. I want to see a hole in my chest when you're done. Do you understand me? I'm not dying from this."
