Jessie J regrets not saying ‘goodbye to her breast’ following mastectomy amid breast cancer diagnosis

BBG News

Jessie J has revealed she wished she said goodbye to her breast before undergoing a mastectomy.

The performer, aged 37, underwent surgery two weeks back following a recent breast cancer diagnosis. However, in a statement released over the weekend, she shared that she has been dealing with some ‘late-coming sadness’ and expressed feelings of ‘disappointment’ for not being able to bid farewell beforehand.

Sharing openly on her Instagram Stories, she posted honestly about her emotions, showing courage.

Initially, upon receiving her diagnosis, the artist behind “Price Tag” entered a state of survival instincts. Now, she is allowing herself to feel frustrated and sorrowful.

In her recent post, Jessie shared: ‘Two weeks after surgery. Removed the drain two nights back. She instructed me to inhale deeply and then exhale forcefully. She pulled it off swiftly. Wow, what a sensation! But oh, so relieving to be drain-free again, after 12 days.’

Currently, I’m navigating the challenge of finding appropriate attire with my slightly mismatched breasts, as I strive for balance. One seems to inquire, “All good?” with a gentle gaze.

She continued: ‘Also my experience was when I was diagnosed I went into survival mode. 

In the whirlwind of life, juggling appointments, a toddler’s antics, and the mental turmoil that comes with moving house and embarking on a long-awaited return to work after eight years, I found myself feeling utterly overwhelmed. The anticipation was palpable, and yet, I knew it was time to take the plunge.

I hadn’t had much chance to fully understand the situation as it unfolded, so I’ve been feeling a bit of delayed sadness and frustration now that I have time to truly grasp what is happening.

Jessie mentioned, “I’m a bit let down that I didn’t properly bid farewell to my old house; it seems a little absurd, but that’s how I feel right now. Everyone’s feelings about such things are likely to differ, and this is just my personal experience.

Instead, I only focused on the surgery at the time, showing strength as best I could. Now, however, I’ve arrived at a place where I allow myself to feel angry, sad, and all other emotions, even if it’s just for a short while.

‘Then I will sew some padding in a bra to even them out order some t-shirts and crack tf on’.

Previously, it was confirmed that Jessie is not yet free from cancer, following her recent post expressing her hope to overcome the illness.

Last month, the singer explained that her earlier statement had been misinterpreted. Although she has been hoping for positive updates, sadly, the cancer she mentioned hasn’t completely disappeared yet.

Jesse continued by explaining that she was waiting for the outcome of some tests and intended to take a seven-day hiatus from social media to concentrate on her healing process.

She mentioned that when discussing her post, it contained a summary of the advantages and disadvantages of undergoing breast cancer surgery. Her initial advantage pointed out was… the cancer had completely been removed.

I shared an optimistic statement, not something I already know to be true. I haven’t received my results yet. The [fingers crossed emoji] was meant to express hope, but it seems that wasn’t as clear as I intended.

She continued: ‘This is quite an unusual circumstance. I apologize for any confusion, as I could have been more precise. However, at this moment, I haven’t received the results from my surgery, which was merely six days ago. I hope they will come true soon, but dealing with cancer isn’t straightforward, unfortunately.’

After some time, Jesse mentioned: “I’ll be logging off social media for a week. It’s good for me and I need a reset. I want to concentrate on my healing process and avoid any misunderstandings or misinterpretations in what I say.

‘My head and boob hurts. Lol, Bye. Always loveeeee’. 

The confusion occurred following her post on Instagram on Thursday where she stated: ‘Positives: Cancer is completely gone.’

She mentioned that her mastectomy and breast reconstruction surgery had progressed smoothly, as she humorously stated: ‘My nipple is in its original spot again.’

As a devoted fan, here’s how I’ve been rephrasing the benefits Jesse outlined: “I’m enjoying watching Love Island without any pangs of guilt. My social life is blooming more than ever, as I’m catching up with friends more frequently.

I’ve shared that my partner, Chanan Safir Colman, and our son, Sky, have joined forces with my mother in offering their unwavering support.

‘My mum lives with us. Sky just being Sky. Chanan making me feel safe and the messages are 10/10.’

‘Sharing experiences and offering mutual support with others facing similar circumstances.’

In a later confirmation, it was made clear by Jessie that when she wrote “cancer is gone,” she added a crossed-fingers emoji to signify that it represented hope rather than a confirmed fact.

4 days after my surgery, she mentioned that she had been discussing the advantages of the procedure, remaining optimistic throughout the conversation.

‘I’m expecting my findings shortly, which I hope to confirm and share with everyone. However, at the moment, I’m unsure about the outcome. Despite this uncertainty, I remain optimistic and will continue expressing my thoughts as if they have already manifested.’
