Did Nancy Brinker Undergo Plastic Surgery?
No, Nancy Brinker did not undergo plastic surgery. But, she had reconstructive breast surgery back in the late-1980s. She also went through a preventive hysterectomy to beat cancer.
Do you know? Brinker had had cordial three breast lumps in her body. She did not take it seriously when she found the third lump in the left side of her breast. Later, her doctor confirmed that she had cancer after seeing her biopsy report in January 1984.
In an interview, Brinker said that “she sobbed after diagnosing with breast cancer.” She also added, “It’s like someone stabbed her with a knife from behind.” Also, her husband said that “it was like the rerun of a nightmare after his first wife died of ovarian cancer.”
Brinker went through a modified radical mastectomy after having a chemotherapy check for almost five years. It was like a mixture of fatigue with nausea during the medical test, she said.
