Singer Olivia Newton-John is diagnosed with cancer for the third time
The Australian performer has developed a tumour in her spine, after previously recovering from cancers in her breast and shoulder
Olivia Newton-John, the Australian singer who found worldwide fame in the hit movie Grease, has revealed she has been diagnosed with cancer for the third time.
The 69-year-old told Australian television broadcaster Channel Seven that doctors had discovered a tumour at the base of her spine.
She has since undergone radiation treatment, and is also treating the disease with natural therapies such as the use of cannabis oil.
“I’m still treating it, and I’m treating it naturally and doing really well, yeah,” she told the network late Sunday from her home in California.
Newton-John was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1992, but beat the disease. In 2013, she found out that she had cancer in her shoulder.
