She added:"I went back in and he was very good and he said, 'Look, it's nothing to worry about. It is actually a cancer that doesn't necessarily spread, but you do need to treat it'.""My first instinct, typical me, was to laugh hysterically because I just thought that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard anybody say.
"I'm sick of cancer and also, my first instinct was, I'm not telling anybody in my family because this that I've got at the moment seems nothing compared to what my sisters have been through."It just seemed so pathetic for some reason to go back and go, 'Oh yeah, I've got a carcinoma'."After the announcement, Linda wrote on Twitter how"very proud" she was of her younger sister Coleen.
