Earlier this week Malandra Burrows revealed her heartbreak at being given a breast cancer diagnosis. The former Emmerdale actress was diagnosed in February after finding a lump a month earlier.
However, Malandra, 56, is now feeling positive after having a stage three tumour removed from her left breast. "You may think you’re super healthy, but that little 'C' word can still get you," she told OK! Magazine. "I just happened to catch myself [while exercising] and thought, 'Good grief, what’s that?'"
At first she didn’t think it was anything to worry about but a few days later the lump hadn't gone away and so she called her GP. "A week later I was at the hospital and the first consultant told me it was a cyst. He said, ‘I won’t be seeing you again.’ The relief I felt," Malandra recalls.
