"Days of Our Lives" actress Kassie DePaiva is opening up about her health journey and revealed she was diagnosed with leukemia in 2016 and breast cancer the following year.
"I went to a country jamboree up at Hunter Mountain, and I’m sitting on a chair lift… I feel under my arm, I go, ‘That’s weird.’ I felt two knots. So I thought, ‘Hmmm.’ And they weren’t painful. I know I didn’t feel bad, nothing," she shared with "Dishing with Digest" podcast co-hosts Stephanie Sloane and Mara Levinsky. Janelle Ash is an entertainment writer for Fox News Digital.
The veteran actress, who also has held a role on "General Hospital," continued, "I called and set up an appointment with my doctor and said, ‘Okay, coming back in July. Can you fit me in because I have these little knots? I just want to make sure everything’s okay.’ Well, did a biopsy, and you know the rest is history."
