Overview
- Beverley Callard, who shared an update Thursday, said a lymph node sample tested in the United States showed “low numbers,” which means she can start radiotherapy soon and she marked the news by popping champagne.
- She underwent surgery in March that removed the primary breast tumor, and later results showed cancer present in the first of several lymph nodes.
- Doctors sent the lymph node tissue to America to gauge how aggressive the cancer is, a step that helps tailor treatment and determine if chemotherapy is needed before radiotherapy.
- She skipped the live London final of I'm A Celebrity on medical advice and said staying up late for a short Zoom appearance left her “wiped out” for days.
- Callard has moved to Dublin for a role on Fair City and her candid updates have drawn strong support from fans and fellow celebrities.
