Strictly Come Dancing star Amy Dowden begins chemotherapy
Strictly Come Dancing star Amy Dowden has begun chemotherapy.
The skilled dancer announced in May that she had been identified with stage three breast most cancers on the age of 32.
“I’ve decided I want to share my chemo journey to help raise awareness, hopefully get others checking and for understanding what we go through,” she wrote on Instagram.
“Feeling tender, bruised and sore but the port will help massively over the next few weeks and allow me to dance when I feel well enough.”
She defined that the port sits beneath her pores and skin, with a tube going alongside her vein so chemo can happen safely.
“Wasn’t looking forward to it. Wasn’t easy,” she added.
