Maria Menounos revealed that her cancerous tumor doubled in size after doctors missed it on her first scan in November. Menounos was diagnosed with stage-two pancreatic cancer.
"I was just f---ing gutted," she said of receiving the diagnosis before the birth of her first daughter."I was just guttural crying and I was like, 'I can't believe God just blessed me with a baby, I'm gonna have a baby.'"
Maria Menounos and her husband, Keven Undergaro, were expecting their first child together via surrogate at the time of the diagnosis. "What I've learned since is ... different scans have the ability to see different things better," Menounos said."For this, an MRI was what's really going to see it. For other things, CAT scans are better, for other things an ultrasound's better. It's a really complicated process."
