Elle Macpherson, 60, reveals secret breast cancer battle and why she refused chemotherapy despite being advised by 32 doctors
Elle Macpherson has revealed her secret cancer struggle seven years after being diagnosed and why she refused to undergo chemotherapy.
The doctor recommended Elle, who is known in recent years for her holistic approach to wellness, undergo a mastectomy with radiation, chemotherapy, hormone therapy and the reconstruction of her breast to treat it. 'It was a shock, it was unexpected, it was confusing, it was daunting in so many ways and it really gave me an opportunity to dig deep in my inner sense to find a solution that worked for me,' Elle said of the diagnosis. While Elle is now in 'clinical remission', which she instead chooses to call 'utter wellness', she said her sons Flynn, 26, and Cy, 21, and former partner Arpad 'Arki' Busson had mixed reactions about her unusual approach to the cancer diagnosis.
