Tennis pro Martina Navratilova has revealed she is now “cancer free” after her diagnosis had left her fearing she “may not see next Christmas”.
She said that having nursing staff play songs by Sir Elton John while she was in chemotherapy had helped get her through the treatment.“One time I picked Elton John and then he starts singing I’m Still Standing, which he dedicated to me at a concert in Paris during the French Open in the eighties.”During her TalkTV interview, set to be aired on Tuesday, Martina revealed her cancer diagnosis had left her fearing the worst.
She added: “This was the first week in December, I will see this Christmas but maybe not the next one.”
