Actress Nicole Eggert, known for her role on "Baywatch," has been sharing her breast cancer journey with followers on social media. A recent Instagram video captured a poignant moment as Eggert revealed the unexpected addition of small tattoos during a CT scan to prepare for radiation therapy.
While the tattoos are just dots, Eggert admitted they serve as a "constant reminder" of her ongoing battle. Fighting back tears, she joked about her mother's reaction to the neck tattoo, finding a bit of humor amidst the emotional weight of the experience.
Diagnosed with stage 2 cribriform carcinoma breast cancer in 2023, Eggert has been open about the challenges she faces as a single mother of two. In an earlier interview, she expressed her determination to fight the disease for her 12-year-old daughter, Keegan.
Eggert provided an update on her condition in August at the premiere of the "After Baywatch" documentary, describing herself as being in a "gray area" after completing treatment while waiting for further imaging and potential surgery. She acknowledged the difficulty of this waiting period, emphasizing the emotional toll it takes.
In a subsequent post, Eggert shared her proactive approach to preparing for radiation, including hiking to combat potential fatigue. Her resilience and positive attitude continue to shine through as she navigates this challenging chapter.
