Strictly star Amy Dowden reveals cancer update as she admits feeling ‘in limbo’
STRICTLY star, Amy Dowden has given an update on her cancer treatment, admitting, she’s feeling ‘in limbo’.
The 33-year-old was diagnosed with breast cancer in May and was getting treatment throughout the summer.
In a new post on her Instagram stories, she has provided an update on how she is adjusting to her new routine.
Amy posted a poignant clip of the moment she rang the cancer treatment bell.
She penned: “Can’t believe it’s a whole two weeks ago! I’m off to the unit again today for my monthly injection.
“But it does feel strange as when your in chemo cycles there’s such a routine and at the moment you feel a little in limbo!
Amy added: “But still so very proud of this moment!”
It comes after The Strictly Come Dancing star recently gave fans a heartbreaking update on her health after fracturing her foot.
Amy had hoped to make a ballroom comeback before the end of Strictly next month after undergoing her final session of chemotherapy.
Amy’s excitement, however, was short-lived, as the saddened star injured her foot and was unable to walk.
Amy expressed her grief at the scenario in a photo posted on her Instagram Thursday, showing her foot wrapped up in a boot.
At the time, she wrote: “Not the week I was hoping for since finishing chemo. Port out but unfortunately gained a boot for a fractured foot.
“Absolutely gutted and heartbroken as this means the plans for me to dance in the Strictly Ballroom this year are no longer possible.
“This is what has kept me going the past few months. 2023 is certainly not my year, roll on 2024 I say!”
However, Amy was all smiles as she was seen arriving at The Blackpool Tower Ballroom, just days after her accident.
Despite her latest setback, she seemed in high spirits as she joined her co-stars in Blackpool for the annual Strictly special at the Tower Ballroom this weekend.
The 33-year-old was dressed for the occasion in a black sparkly blazer suit which complemented her orthopaedic boot which was decorated in silver rhinestones.
