Baywatch star Nicole Eggert continues to share her positive health update following her remarkable battle with breast cancer, expressing deep gratitude and a renewed sense of appreciation for the simple joys of life. Recently, the actress, who has become a symbol of resilience, reflected on the significance of each day, calling it a ‘gift’ as she continues her recovery journey. Following an extensive treatment plan that included surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, Eggert has recently tested negative for the disease, a moment she described with heartfelt relief.
The actress, known for her iconic role in the hit TV series Baywatch, has become a source of inspiration for those facing similar challenges. Her journey began in early 2023 when she was diagnosed with stage 2 cribriform carcinoma breast cancer, a type of cancer where estrogen receptors play a significant role in its growth. After an initial mastectomy and lymph node removal, Eggert completed her chemotherapy in July 2024, followed by a rigorous course of radiation therapy. Despite the demanding nature of her treatment, Eggert has maintained a positive outlook, emphasizing the importance of daily gratitude and mental well-being in her recovery process.
During a recent interview with Fox News Digital, Eggert shared her journey and the emotional impact of her diagnosis. She described the initial stages of her battle with breast cancer, explaining how she initially thought the symptoms she experienced were signs of menopause. However, a self-examination in October led to a diagnosis, and she was faced with the reality of a serious illness. Eggert has since become an advocate for early screening and awareness, encouraging others to take proactive steps in their health journeys.
