Tennis great Martina Navratilova says her 'prognosis is excellent' having been diagnosed with throat and breast cancer.
Tennis great Martina Navratilova says her “prognosis is excellent” having been diagnosed with throat and breast cancer. In an interview with Piers Morgan Uncensored on TalkTV, Navratilova said: “I mean, as far as they know I’m cancer-free … I definitely won’t be missing any of my check-ups. I will be very, very diligent about it, but the prognosis is excellent. But you never know.
’ “And when she said that I’m like: ‘Oh great, I have another cancer?’ And that’s when I started crying on the table as she’s still poking in there getting samples out of my boob and I’m like: ‘Oh great, I have two cancers at the same time that are not related.’” Navratilova, who was previously diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010, spoke of her determination after receiving her double diagnosis. “What was the alternative? Giving up? Giving in? Stopping?” she said.
