"Olivia has been a symbol of triumphs and hope for over 30 years sharing her journey with breast cancer," his statement continued."Her healing inspiration and pioneering experience with plant medicine continues with the Olivia Newton-John Foundation Fund, dedicated to researching plant medicine and cancer.
