I believe she revealed she's been battling cancer (again) since 2013, but that it metastasized in 2017 and spread to her bones at that time. The cancer was in her shoulder in 2013 - that would be classified as a metastasis (stage 4). Granted, the shoulder bones are not, in themselves, a vital organ.

Sean 5,729 Posted December 28, 2019 31 minutes ago, Deathrace said: This definitely has the feeling of her being made a Dame now before it's too late. Well she has had terminal cancer for a couple of years so the honours committee like us all probably figured that she is likely to go sooner or later and thought they don't want to wait until it is too late. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vinegar Tits 578 Posted December 28, 2019 While I do think there may be an element of 'before it's too late', Livvy, sorry, Dame Livvy's gong is thoroughly deserved as she's done shedloads for cancer awareness and charity in Australia and around the world. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ra Ra Rasputin 98 Posted January 13, 2020 Dame Livvy is going to be playing at the Australian Bushfire Relief concert in Sydney in February. It'll be her first concert for quite some time and although it is for a very worthwhile cause, it also suggests she's feeling better health-wise than she has for some time. Cracking lineup too. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Pete Murray mentioned is the 50 year old Aussie singer/songwriter, right? The very veteran DJ isn't MC'ing the whole thing, is he? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
