Janice Dickinson is opening up about her battle with breast cancer.
In an exclusive interview with “The Doctors” on Wednesday, the former supermodel described her diagnosis as a “journey she never thought she’d be on.”
“I haven’t been feeling myself for the past several months, I knew something was wrong,”; she said, before recalling the moment she was diagnosed with the disease. “My internist gave me the initial breast examination, she felt something. She said “Something here doesn’t feel right.’ She felt a lump. I had been very regular with mammograms, after comprehensive tests from four specialists the doctor said point blank, “You are positive for cancer.'”;
The reality television star was at a loss for words as she described the fear she now feels. “It’s shocking; everything hit me at once. My mother died of cancer, so I know how bad I felt when I heard about my mother,”; she said. “My son broke down. Honestly haven’t cried in about 30 years, and just lately I’m tearful because I felt fear for the first time. And I don’t get scared. I kind of lost it.”;
Despite feeling fearful of her upcoming battle, the 61-year-old star remains optimistic about the future. “I want to see my daughter walk down the aisle and I want grandchildren, and I want to get married with Rocky, my fiancé, who’s a doctor,” she explained.
