Preta Gil talks about the return of cancer: “Four different places”

The singer Black Gil 50, posted a video talking about the return of cancer. In a video posted on her social media, she talks about her treatment and says that the disease has spread to four different places. This month, it has been one year since the artist underwent colorectal cancer surgery.

Preta explains that she was in remission, but the cancer can relapse (return) within a period of about five years. “Not only in my case, but in the case of 40% of people who have primary cancer, and that’s what happened to me: my cancer came back.”

She then explains the locations where the disease has settled: “I have two lymph nodes, I have a metastasis that is in the peritoneum and I have a nodule, a lesion in the ureter.” The singer went to the hospital to do her routine exams, when she was surprised by the diagnosis.

“It’s more common than we think, but it’s always a big scare,” she explains. She also says that she soon began treatment and chemotherapy, with the first cycle completed this Sunday (25).

In her video, she also mentions that she will be under observation for 24 hours, return home, where she will stay for twelve days, and then return to the hospital. “My oncological treatment routine is back so that we can cure these four cancer foci that I mentioned.”

Finally, she says she is fine and much better than she was in 2023 and asks for prayers. On her social media, she shared photos during chemotherapy and also received a visit from actor José Loreto, this Sunday (25).
