"It was like a bolt of lightning that pierced my heart."
Carolina Marconi, guest on the TV show “Verissimo”, spoke about the moment when she discovered she had breast cancer.
The former Big Brother contestant was undergoing some routine exams because she couldn't get pregnant. Among these also mammography. Then came the diagnosis: "The histological examination showed that mine was a very small and very aggressive tumor, when they told me I ran into the clinic bar and started crying," she said.
To his partner, Alessandro Tulli, he said: “I don't have time for a tumor, I have to have a child. Then I returned and from there they set the day of the surgery: April 6, my mother's birthday, who was also sick with thyroid cancer. The operation lasted eight hours ".
“I was scared at the beginning, now I have a great charge. I didn't know I had such strength, ”he added, explaining that the last round of chemo should finish on November 10th. "That day I'll have one of those celebrations that are remembered."
As soon as the therapies started, last July, Marconi had decided to shave to zero : “I was sick of seeing them fall, it was a liberation”, he confessed to his fans in a video on Instagram.
