Mickie Krause has cancer. The hit star took part in a television show that campaigns for cancer prevention and received a shock diagnosis himself.
Kassel – Cancer prevention is important, Mickie Krause knows that too. That’s why the 51-year-old takes part in the TV show “Showtime of my Life – Stars against Cancer” along with other German celebrities. The aim of the program, which is scheduled to be broadcast on February 15 on the Vox TV channel, is to raise awareness among men and women about the topic of cancer prevention.
With a disrobing number on stage, the prominent men want to appeal to television viewers to go to cancer screening. The motto of the singers and actors is: If we can undress in front of an audience, you can do it in front of a doctor. Mickie Krause set a good example for this and went to a preventive medical check-up. But the subsequent diagnosis changes everything. During the shooting, the pop singer got the message: He has bladder cancer.
Mickie Krause has cancer: Doctors discover a malignant tumor in the pop singer’s bladder
In early January, doctors discovered a malignant tumor in his bladder. Two days before the show, Mickie Krause found out about his illness. “The worst thing in life is helplessness and I felt totally helpless at the moment because I didn’t expect this diagnosis at all,” Krause recalls at Vox. A month has passed since then and the 51-year-old has already had an operation because giving up is not an option for him: “I’ll get out of it,” says the pop singer confidently.
In an interview with RTL he says: “I’m doing very well. I survived the surgery, which took place in Berlin on January 10th, well. Before that I danced with my men on January 8th. ”According to media reports, the pop singer is happy to have been to the doctor. Krause has to undergo another operation at the end of February. “They look to see if anything is hidden somewhere and whether a tumor has been overlooked. And then a healing therapy begins for me, which lasts six to eight weeks.” (Helena Gries)
