HEARTBREAKING HEALTH UPDATE: CORRIE LEGEND REVEALS TEST RESULTS ‘WERE NOT WHAT I WANTED TO HEAR’!
Doctors have informed Beverley Callard that she should have begun her radiotherapy treatment before now. The Coronation Street legend, 69, who starred as Liz McDonald on the ITV soap on and off for 30 years, revealed earlier this year that she had been diagnosed with the early stages of breast cancer and has been keeping fans updated on her health situation ever since.
The actress recently relocated to Ireland with her husband, Jon McEwan, so she could star in the BBC soap Fair City. She took to social media to explain how her latest appointment with her new surgeon had gone, which included the update regarding her treatment timeline, reports The Mirror.
Speaking in a new video posted to Instagram on Tuesday evening, she said: “Well I went to the hospital today at quarter past three, and they all seemed very nice, obviously they’re new to me.
“They are a little concerned because they think I should’ve started the radiotherapy before now but of course because we moved house, it took a while for my medical records to come from England to Ireland et cetera but they’ve all arrived [now].”
The former I’m A Celebrity…South Africa star then explained that she has another appointment later this week and will begin treatment at some point in the near future.
She said :”I’ve got to go back on Thursday morning to see some more doctors and medical people and then they will begin it soon so it went okay, it went okay. So I will keep you updated.”
