Janey Godley accepts she 'may be facing death' after cancer battle 'epiphany'
23.03.2022 - 13:21 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Janey Godley says she has accepted that she "may be facing death".
The Scots star, 61, shared a heartbreakingly honest update on her cancer battle with fans today.
She admitted she had been "resisting" the fact she has a "life threatening" condition until a recent epiphany that it's something she has "no control over".
At the end of last year, the comic revealed that she had been diagnosed with ovarian cancer.
Janey underwent a hysterectomy in January but was told that her cancer was stage three - meaning it spread beyond her ovaries and requires further treatment.
Stage 3b is defined as cancer growths 2cm or smaller in size on the lining of the abdomen and there may also be cancer in the lymph nodes.
Janey has undergone three rounds of chemo so far and has been updating her loyal followers on her journey on social media.
Opening up on her Facebook page earlier this morning, Janey shared a picture of her and her little dog Honey, and penned: "I think I’ve had an epiphany, I have been resisting the fact I have a life threatening cancer, I have tried to “fight and be strong” instead of accepting that this whole year I just may be facing death or survival of something I have no real control over.
She added:"I appreciate all the amazing support and I believe my mental health will improve if I just lean into the fact that this cancer is happening- I am not alone, millions of people survive this disease and living with it isn’t a failure - maybe I don’t have to fight every thing that happens to me and trust the science?"
Many of Janey's fans rallied round her and offered their support.
One wrote: "It’s hard trying to be positive when you have no control over your body’s actions. Stay strong, stay brave, but have a ‘day off’
