The former wife of England rugby World Cup winner Ben Cohen has revealed that she has been diagnosed with cancer. Abby Cohen posted a video on to her Instagram page saying that she only had one symptom warning - which she ignored.
And the mum-of-two , who did not make any specific comment on her cancer and what the symptom was, warned others to make sure they ‘listen to their bodies’ and get anything suspicious checked out. In the moving video she showed herself and her new partner and her two daughters as she went through medical appointments in hospital, the Mirror reported.
She said they there was only one symptom, and has undergone an operation in hospital. The 44-year-old said: “This was and is the toughest yet. I’m unlucky, but lucky, to have been warned only once with a symptom of this terrible illness. With huge thanks to the NHS for saving my life and taking good care of me when I felt so scared and most vulnerable.
