Katie Couric made a candid announcement about her health.
On Wednesday, the TV personality and journalist shared a blog post on her website revealing that she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
Couric, 65, went to a scheduled pap smear appointment in May. While at the doctor’s office, the gynecologist told her she was also due for a mammogram. The next month, the former “Today” show anchor booked a date for a mammogram. She recalled Dr. Drossman telling her that undergoing the biopsy was important because there’s “something here that I’d like to check out. It could be scar tissue.”
On June 21, Couric received an urgent text message from her doctor.
“A text came in: ‘Please call me in the office to discuss biopsy results. I tried calling you on your cell. Your mailbox is full,'” she detailed in her blog post.
Moments later, she was told she had breast cancer.
“When I called back, Dr. Drossman picked up right away. ‘Your biopsy came back. It’s cancer. You’re going to be fine but we need to make a plan,'” she wrote.
