Lucy Davis reveals she was diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer
On Tuesday, as the Daily Mail reported, the actress known for The Office revealed on Instagram that doctors diagnosed her with breast cancer. She also shared that she does not know how much time she has left.
Davis wrote, “A year and a half ago I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Breast Cancer, which has metastasized to my bones. Specifically to my spine, right hip, and my ribs. The cancer is incurable, and too late for chemo.”
“The initial lump that I felt, wasn’t a ‘lump’ as such; rather a kind of hard spot. Really tiny. I almost didn’t bother getting it checked. So I guess I’m saying don’t ignore anything – get everything checked out:),” she added.
The 53-year-old went on to write that from now on, she plans to make the most of whatever time she has left and live her life as joyfully as possible. Davis also shared that she has always loved learning from every experience in life, and cancer has not disappointed her in that regard, as the illness has taught her a great deal.
Speaking about the pain caused by cancer, the English actress told her fans that there is a possibility she may eventually need to use a wheelchair.
