The supermodel said in a new interview that she refused to die from the disease and told her oncologist to “dig a hole” in her chest to “excavate” the tumor.
Linda Evangelista revealed she was diagnosed with breast cancer twice in five years.
“The margins were not good, and due to other health factors, without hesitation, because I wanted to put everything behind me and not to have to deal with this, I opted for a bilateral mastectomy.” “’I don’t want it to look pretty. I want you to excavate. I want to see a hole in my chest when you’re done. Do you understand me? I’m not dying from this,'” the Canada native reiterated.
