‘I thought I can't go back through this again’
Strictly Come Dancing star Amy Dowden has told of her ‘disbelief’ after facing a second cancer scare following her initial heartbreaking diagnosis.
Both her first and second cycles of chemo resulted in emergency hospital stays and life-threatening complications, including sepsis and blood clots. She later underwent a mastectomy and has since completed her chemotherapy treatments but was unable to compete in the 2023 series of Strictly, the Mirror reports.
In July last year, she received a second diagnosis for "another type of cancer", and began chemotherapy in August. In February, earlier this year, the Strictly star revealed her latest health check showed "no evidence of disease", describing the news from doctors as "words I dreamed of" and her "biggest accomplishment yet".
"I'll never forget them calling me to say we're sorry but we've seen something we don't like the look of. I was in disbelief, I thought I can't go back through this again, I can't miss Strictly again. My whole family were heartbroken." She had hoped surgery had solved her cancer, but two months later was told doctors had found another type.
