BACK INTO BATTLE

.. ou la coupure de presse lu dans le dernier WHO magazine australien

“Fight each round, take it on the chin and never, never ever give in.” So sang Newton-john in ‘Why Me’ of her 1992 breast-cancer diagnosis. That experience led the singer, 69, to embark on a journey in cancer advocacy and fundraising which culminated in the creation of the Olivia Newton-john Cancer Wellness & Research Centre in Melbourne.
“With more and more people affected by cancer every day, I believe we are in a world desperate for healing and I’m committed to doing whatever I can to help,” she says.
But the disease wasn’t done with the star. Brain cancer claimed the life of her sister Rona in 2013, and last year, Newton-john revealed the disease had returned, and spread into her back. She’s facing this latest challenge with her trademark determination. “I’m not going to be one of those statistics,” she said. “I’m going to be fine.”
