Back in 1992,
Olivia Newton-John battled and beat breast cancer and now, 25 years later, she is doing it again. The singer recently postponed her tour due to back pain and today she revealed the real cause of the back pain on Facebook today.
Olivia Newton-John is reluctantly postponing her June U.S. and Canadian concert tour dates. The back pain that initially caused her to postpone the first half of her concert tour, has turned out to be breast cancer that has metastasized to the sacrum.
In addition to natural wellness therapies, Olivia will complete a short course of photon radiation therapy and is confident she will be back later in the year, better than ever, to celebrate her shows.
“I decided on my direction of therapies after consultation with my doctors and natural therapists and the medical team at my Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness and Research Centre in Melbourne, Australia,” says Olivia Newton-John.
There will be no interview requests accepted at this time as Olivia’s focus is on her treatment and healing. Ticket buyers for the upcoming concerts should contact venues directly about refunds. Rescheduled concert dates will be posted at OliviaNewton-John.com in the coming weeks.
Hopefully, she will beat it just like she did last time.
For those of you, like me, who don’t know what the sacrum is, here is the definition “a triangular bone in the lower back formed from fused vertebrae and situated between the two hipbones of the pelvis.”
