In a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, MMQB, the 38-year-old woman revealed that she was diagnosed with the disease in September 2016 and had two operations before she learned she had no cancer.
According to the data of National Cancer Institute, cervical cancer is the third largest type of cancer in women. The most common symptoms include abnormal vaginal bleeding, pain in various parts of the body, swelling and swelling, changes in appetite and weight, and gastrointestinal and bladder problems.
Irene learned in September that she had cervical cancer. The terrible news came five months after her lawsuit, which involved a tracker releasing naked photos of her through a peephole in the Tennessee Hotel.
After the trial, everyone kept telling me that you were so strong because you had gone through it, because you kept a job in football because you were the only woman on the team. & Finally, I believe this: Hey, I got cancer, but damn it, I'm strong enough to do it.
When Andrews'oncologist advised her to undergo surgery immediately, the stubborn journalist returned to work and underwent surgery in Los Angeles a few weeks later. Just a few days after the operation, the reporter returned directly to her favorite job in Andrews'way. & I won't watch football match at home this year. "This is our Super Cup year, and I won't miss it," she told her doctor.

Her fianc-in-law tried to persuade her to reconsider and not to jump on the plane to Green Bay, Wisconsin, two days later, but she was too tough to stand by.
-You won't miss the game. If you are injured, you will try your best to recover. "That will be me," she told him.
Irene Andrews is not the only brave woman, she did not let cancer keep her away from the things that make her happy. Shannen Doherty also fought cancer in 2016, sharing her pain and struggle with the world through Instagram, and even releasing video of her dancing after chemotherapy when many people go to bed.
-Should I stand for a full match five days after the operation? Andrews admitted, "We just said doctors don't recommend doing this." & But as I felt during the trial, movement was my escape. I need to be with my team. & quot;
On November 1, the sports host underwent the second and final operation, and 16 days later learned that she had no cancer and did not need chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
Although it may be daunting for celebrities to expose their hardships and struggle against diseases such as cancer, their ability to use their own platform to raise awareness is immeasurable. Well done, Andrews! What do you think of
