Supermodel Faces Cancer Diagnosis and Chooses to Skip Chemotherapy

If you hear that someone is diagnosed with cancer, you might jump to the conclusion that they’re going to start undergoing chemotherapy treatments. It’s also possible that they may have radiation and/or surgery. While that is true for many people who get cancer, it is not true for everyone.

Seven years ago, supermodel Elle Macpherson was diagnosed with breast cancer. Her doctor recommended chemotherapy and radiation, but she ultimately decided against his suggestion. And yes, 7 years later, cancer hasn’t got the best of her.

Macpherson revealed her cancer diagnosis for the first time in an exclusive interview with The Australian Women’s Weekly. She also revealed the diagnosis in her new book, titled “Elle.”

The title of the chapter in her book where she describes her cancer journey is called “Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff.” It was Friday the 13th, and Macpherson received a call from her doctor with the results of the lumpectomy she’d had. She was diagnosed with HER2 positive oestrogen receptive intraductal carcinoma. Her doctor recommended chemotherapy, radiation, hormone therapy, a mastectomy and breast reconstruction.
