Country music singer and actress Jillian Cardarelli has revealed she is battling stage 2 breast cancer, saying her life changed in an instant after receiving the devastating diagnosis just weeks after celebrating personal and career milestones.
The 33-year-old artist said she was preparing for a busy period that included filming the second season of 'Crossroad Springs,' recording new music and celebrating her fifth wedding anniversary with husband Brian Parker when everything came to a halt. Cardarelli was diagnosed with stage 2 invasive ductal carcinoma on 21 May and admitted the past few weeks have felt like a blur.
