Instead of regretting her elimination from the finale of ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" (DWTS) last month, Toni Braxton preferred to perceive her boot from the show as "blessing in disguise" because it gave her more space to recover from a breast tumor surgery that she had recently. To the latest issue of US Weekly, she told all about how she coped with the diagnosis.
Toni said a lump was found on her breast during a routine checkup back in August before she appeared on the ABC show. Finding there wasn't nothing serious about it, doctors gave her an okay to continue filming DWTS. It was after she was eliminated from the show on October 20, that she was ordered to go under the knife as after further medical evaluation doctors found the lump "was definitely still there and bigger."
On the disease, Toni openly told US Weekly, "We have family history. My grandmother on my dad's side died of breast cancer, and I have aunts on both sides that have breast cancer." Though so, she admitted to be "very fortunate."
Still recovering from the procedure, Toni Braxton is scheduled to appear on the "Dancing with the Stars" tour, which begins on December 17 in San Diego.
