Nightwish singer Floor Jansen has told fans she’s recovering well from breast cancer surgery.
Jansen revealed earlier this week that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer and that her prognosis was “very good.”
Today she has confirmed the surgery went well.
In a social media post, Jansen says: “The tumor removal surgery went well without any surprises. I’m recovering well and should be up and about soon.
“It will take a few weeks to know what the findings are regarding the tumor and lymph node that will be tested. I’ll keep you posted.”
She went on to thank the medical staff who have taken care of her since her diagnosis.
She adds: “I want to use this opportunity to thank the medical staff that took care of me. All done with so much care, empathy, and professionalism!
“I felt completely safe in your capable hands! You all are troopers, and not just in the hospital I went to, but worldwide. Thank you for all you do!”
Announcing her diagnosis this week, Jansen said she was hopeful of being well enough to take part in Nightwish’s upcoming European tour.
