‘I will guerdyfy this cancer as I guerdyfy everything else in my life,’ she wrote.
‘I am lucky that this breast cancer was discovered at an early stage – it is still scary of course, but I have love and support from those around me and that alone is the fuel that I need,’ she continued.
And she added a plea to her fans to take their health seriously.Â
‘For those who do not get health checks regularly, I urge you to. Your life depends on it.’

She had previously beaten breast cancer in 2010, but said she feared she might not see Christmas 2023 after it returned.
‘Giving up, giving in, stopping – that’s just not an option for me. You get on with it. Quitting is just not in my DNA,’ Martina said.
