Louise McSharry, the 31-year-old
broadcaster, has cancer (Hodgkin’s lymphoma)
Louise McSharry is struggling with cancer. It's not good news for the
fans, but it
happens in life: you get
sick and then heal. We hope she will
be completely recovered
from the
disease. In a public
statement, Louise announced that
she was diagnosed
with Hodgkin's
disease. To
receive the necessary care, she will
be out of the air for
some months. It is said she will
undergo chemotherapy to fight the
tumor.
In a
touching interview with Ryan Tubridy on RTÉ 2fm's issued Wednesday, 27
August (2014), McSharry said she did not
feel well for a number
of months. She continued to work, but she feels
her health is deteriorating more
and more. After she
underwent an
appendectomy last
December, she had
developed an
abscess which
disappears shortly.
However, she then began to
experience night sweats
and loss of appetite associated with
pain. The pain was
so significant that
she had to see her doctor
who recommended physical examination and blood tests which
revealed that her CRP figure (C-reactive protein) was very high, but
several other
diagnostic
procedures had not yet to perform to detect and confirm
the malignant tumor.
While covering for Tubridy on his RTÉ 2fm show this summer,
Louise started to experience a "terrible pain" in his side. She saw her doctor who performed various medical tests
and discovered that she had swollen lymph nodes. Her health care provider recommended a biopsy which later revealed
the presence of cancerous cells in her body.
This is not a news people want to ever hear from a health care
provider; but it happens sometimes.
August
20, accompanied by her
fiancé
and his adviser to know
about the
results of the
biopsy, McSharry received the news of
her cancer, specifically lymphoma. She said that
after receiving more
information about the treatment
she knows "it is not necessary to go
to that dark
place." "I'm
really lucky," she said, "because of Hodgkin's
disease is an
incurable cancer." "I really have
no doubt that I
will be well," she added.
People die with cancer, people heal from
it. We really hope that Louise McSharry is one of the winners. In this
crucial moment, she needs the support and prayer of everyone. From natural alternatives (cannabis oil for
instance) to conventional approaches, there are plenty of tools Louise McSharry can use to
come out victorious of the cancer. Let her make the wise decision!
