US tennis legend Chris Evert is keeping her fans updated over the status of her health. After announcing that she is officially done with stage 1 chemotherapy early this month, Chris was very active on social media and kept her fans updated with her analysis of tennis tournaments. 

Evert updates on her current health status and thanks her ex-husband

Recently, Evert shared a video on her official Twitter handle, proving updates on her health and the current stage of her recovery. Evert thanked the nurse for taking care of her at the medical center and also her ex-husband Andy Mill, who takes her to the center and stood by her during this difficult time. 

“I have Andy over here who is with his yeti hat on. He is been a great loyal caregiver. I love him to death. He is been taking me every three weeks. This is my fourth week actually, because, in my 3rd week, my white blood count was too low, so I had to wait a week. So I am good to go.”

US tennis star also gave an update on social media as she tweeted, “I wanted to share my stage 1 ovarian cancer diagnosis and the story behind it as a way to help others. I feel very lucky that they caught it early and expect positive results from my chemo plan.”

The preventive test was carried out after her sister’s death due to cancer and her genetic report showed susceptibility to a certain variant of cancer. Evert said after her tests and diagnosis, “Be your own advocate. Know your family’s history. Have total awareness of your body, follow your gut and be aware of changes.”
