Natalie Barr admits the shocking thing she did growing up in the 80s as Sunrise star reveals her first thoughts upon learning of her cancer diagnosis: 'Your mind goes off on a tangent'


Natalie Barr has shed more light on her recent skin cancer diagnosis.

'I grew up in the '70s and '80s and put baby oil on my skin to sunbathe on ( Western Australia's) Scarborough Beach,' she told New Idea. 'I am going to double my efforts when it comes to protecting myself because being told you have cancer, even at the earliest stage, really just brings home what you could stand to lose if the diagnosis was worse – like it is for so many other Australians,' she admitted. The Sunrise co-host told viewers last Tuesday the discovery occurred when she visited her dermatologist after discovering a tiny persistent 'pimple' on her nose.
