Debbie McGee reveals she's partying again after getting all-clear after cancer surgery
The 60-year-old had two tumours removed last week after cancer tissue was found, but she is already back at work and enjoying life.
Speaking on today’s This Morning, Debbie revealed she was given a number of options to remove the lumps and there was some discussion about her having a mastectomy, which was eventually ruled out.
She told Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield: “The doctor said there was no reason to have a mastectomy.
“I am so, so lucky, that is why I am partying because she came back a week later and said you don’t need anything else – just get better.”
The dancer, who has spoken out to encourage women to have mammograms, revealed she has been thinking of her late husband Paul Daniels during the difficult time.
She said: “When I go through anything that makes me unhappy I always think what would he have done, but this time I missed him more because I thought if I have to have a mastectomy, I thought well if Paul was here I know whatever I looked like he would love me,' she said.
"But now I'm on my own, I really missed him because if he was alive I wouldn't have that extra worry really.”
Discussing her positive outlook on life, she continued: “I just think in the last three years I've gone through more stress than I've ever been in my life, but there have been moments.'
“I suffered from anxiety at one point because I was really worried about my future. I don't worry about anything until I've got to worry about it,' she added.
“When I went for the results my sister said "why aren't you worrying?" And I said "when I've got something to scared of, I will worry", but over the last three years there have been times when I've found it quite hard to cope.”
