Home-grown singer Joanna Dong suffered a health scare recently and is recovering after a minor operation.
Dong said the MRI results were “pretty concerning” and revealed a sizeable area of blood pooling in the ducts on both breasts. As it looked like it might be DCIS , a biopsy was ordered. “Just had minor surgery yesterday to have a relatively small segment excised and my ducts removed – I am home and doing great and should make a full recovery really soon,” she wrote.“I went through a whole gamut of emotions when my doctor told me in the worst-case scenario it might have been a double lumpectomy or even mastectomy and breast reconstruction,” she wrote.
The singer, who is slated to perform in one of the segments of the upcoming National Day Parade , also thanked the 2024 NDP team for making arrangements at short notice, so that she can focus on recovery and return for the final rehearsals and NDP show on Aug 9.
