In 2013, eight years after her breast cancer diagnosis, Kylie was in Los Angeles to accept an award for raising breast cancer awareness.
Kylie was only 36 years old when she was diagnosed with the disease and underwent surgery and chemotherapy.
Years later she was involved in awareness campaigns for the Women’s Cancer Research Fund.
This short news story shows her on stage accepting the award and a snippet of an interview where she describes her cancer survival as one of her greatest achievements.
