Just as CNN's Sara Sidner arrived in Israel to spend three weeks covering the Israel-Hamas conflict, she received the news that a concerning mammogram called for a biopsy. Now, she reveals she has stage 3 breast cancer.
Sidner, CNN's senior national correspondent and the anchor of the morning edition of CNN News Central, ended her broadcast Monday morning by asking viewers to recall the names of eight women they know and love. "Statistically, one of them will get or have breast cancer," she said. "I am that one-in-eight in my friend group."
