Shelly Yahimovich, former chair of the Labor Party and a media personality, announced on her X account Monday that she has finished her chemotherapy treatments. "I feel much better, returning to normal life," she stated. Yahimovich revealed in August that she was battling pancreatic cancer. At that time, she explained that her life changed eight months prior with the discovery of a cancerous tumor in her pancreas. Fortunately, it was diagnosed early, without metastasis, and she underwent immediate surgery. Subsequent CT scans showed no recurrence of the removed tumor for the third time, with no signs of the disease returning. However, she noted that pancreatic cancer is aggressive and requires a multi-front attack, leading her to undergo rigorous chemotherapy every two weeks.
On Monday, Yahimovich shared a photo from the airport with her partner, en route to her first vacation since her cancer battle. "Hello, I'm traveling. Returning to normal life. In a moment, I'll be working and we're flying on our first vacation since the cancer," she wrote. She also expressed gratitude for the support and assistance she received throughout her ordeal.
