I have some shocking health news that I never thought during my life yet I would have to share, but I have a breast cancer event,” shared Harris via Instagram video on August 2024. “We caught it early. It’s very early. It’s very early. It’s the same location as my initial (diagnosis) initial cancer 10 years ago.”
In her new interview, Harris revealed that while she was recovering from surgery to remove a cancerous tumor, she proved “difficulty” in November last year. She had been on 10 days of compulsory bed rest when she embarked on a walk.

Harris explained that two days of effort had led to a “red” and “irritable” recovery site that was shocked to think she had taken significant steps back. “I was immediately concerned until I basically undoed all the good of the surgery and the first 10 days of recovery and now I was afraid I might have either an infection or my implant was rejected,” he said. “I wasn’t sure what was happening.

As Harris continues her recovery, she added that “the new goal is to make sure that my body is not a host of any circulating tumor cells deciding to settle on a host organ.”
Harris added that her husband, Michael HessAnd two daughters, Josllyn, 17, and Hillary, 14, help him discover a new level of normality. “You want to go back to normal or whatever the new normal,” he said. “And so if this could be a blip on the radar of our girls’ memories, that would make me very happy.”
