CNN Anchor Underwent Double Mastectomy To Avoid Cancer

Zoraida Sambolin, the CNN host of Early Start, underwent a double mastectomy last month as a preventative measure. The host updated fans and well wishers via Skype, telling everyone that “things are going well.”

‘It’s been a pretty tough process,’ she told CNN. ‘But my prognosis is good now. What they found in my left breast was breast cancer stage one, grade one invasive, but the good news is my lymph nodes are free and clear, so I’m good.

‘My right breast actually ended up having Lobular Carcinoma two, and was headed in the same direction as my left breast, so I made a good decision, and now everything has been taken care of.’

Last month, Ms Sambolin revealed she was undergoing the same procedure as Angelina Jolie while discussing the Hollywood star on her show.

The host was diagnosed with breast cancer in her left breast, and underwent the double mastectomy on June 4th.
