Jessica Ellen Cornish, the 'Flashlight' singer, on Wednesday announced that she has been diagnosed with the earliest stage of breast cancer, where the disease has spread outside of its original location. The 37-year-old UK singer took to her Instagram to announce the news. But is the early stage of breast cancer curable? The singer was diagnosed with cancer just before her latest single release in April. The Grammy-nominated artist shared the information with her fans on her social media, where she also revealed that she will undergo surgery following her performance at Summertime Ball on June 15.

Rise in borderline or early-stage breast cancer cases Breast cancer cases are rapidly increasing across the globe, including in India. Recent projections indicate that the cases will further increase in the coming time. Globally, breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women, with over 2.3 million new cases and 670,000 deaths reported in 2020. According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer, there is a significant increase in breast cancer cases, suggesting over 3 million new cases and 1 million deaths will be reported by 2040.

Experts say that breast cancer in its early stages is "highly treatable and survivable," yet Jessie has not shared any other information regarding her diagnosis. But is early breast cancer curable? 'Early-stage breast cancer is often curable with appropriate treatment. Treatment typically involves surgery, such as lumpectomy or mastectomy, often followed by radiation therapy and/or chemotherapy, hormone therapy, or targeted therapy, depending on the cancer's characteristics,' says Dr. Vivek B. K., Additional Director, Medical Oncology, Fortis Hospital, Bannerghatta Road. 'Prognosis and treatment options vary based on cancer stage, tumour size, hormone receptor status, and overall health. Regular follow-up care is crucial to monitor for recurrence and manage side effects,' he adds. What is the survival rate in early-stage breast cancer? The five-year survival rate for stage 0 to stage III breast cancer is over 90% according to the American Cancer Society. 'Treatment typically involves surgery, such as lumpectomy ( organ conservation as often as possible), often followed by radiation therapy and/or chemotherapy, hormone therapy, or targeted therapy, depending on the cancer's characteristics,' says Dr. Niti Raizada, Principal Director Medical Oncology, Fortis Hospital Bannerghatta Road. Can breast cancer development be prevented? According to Dr. Chaitra Deshpande, a radiation oncologist at Onco Life Cancer Centre in Satara, "Breast cancer can be diagnosed in women between the ages of 18 and 45 years. Moreover, the breast cancer in 45-year-olds is quite aggressive and is difficult to treat." However, it can be prevented by involving a combination of lifestyle choices and awareness. 1. Obesity, especially after menopause, is linked to a higher risk of breast cancer. Please choose a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. 2. Regular exercise can help maintain a healthy weight and lower hormone levels associated with breast cancer. at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity each week. 3. Limiting alcohol to no more than one drink per day can help reduce your risk. 4. Early detection through mammograms can lead to better outcomes. Discuss with your healthcare provider the right screening schedule based on your age and risk factors. 5. A family history of breast cancer can increase your risk. Consider genetic counselling if you have concerns. 6. Smoking is linked to various cancers, including breast cancer. Quitting can improve your overall health.

Wes Anderson reveals his unsuccessful attempts to cast Jodie Foster in multiple films
Washington [US], June 5 (ANI): Acclaimed director Wes Anderson, known for his quirky and star-studded ensemble casts, recently shared that he has tried, but failed, to cast actress Jodie Foster in several of his films over the years. The Oscar-winning director revealed that despite his repeated efforts, timing never seemed to align, preventing him from working with the legendary actress. According to Deadline, in a recent interview, Anderson admitted, "Over the years, I had so many movies that I tried to get Jodie Foster to be in." He explained that this was a recurring effort, with Foster being approached for roles in several films. "It used to be that every movie, we went to Jodie Foster for a part. And I think I did it three movies in a row, maybe four," Anderson recalled, speaking fondly of his admiration for the actress. "I met her, and I liked her. And I thought it was going to get her. And I think she's just great, Jodie Foster. And I loved her," he added, as quoted by Deadline. Despite his best efforts, Anderson's attempts to cast Foster were unsuccessful, and the timing never seemed right for both parties. The director went on to explain that sometimes the timing and type of work just don't match up. "I still would like to get Jodie Foster. But I guess after asking a few times, I thought maybe I'm not... I think sometimes somebody has an idea of the kind of work they want to do at that time in his or her life, and we weren't right," he said. Anderson did not specify which roles he envisioned for Foster. Anderson's most recent work, 'The Phoenician Scheme', marks his 13th feature film. The film is centred around Benicio del Toro, who plays Zsa-zsa Korda, a wealthy businessman. Korda becomes the target of a dangerous pursuit after appointing his nun daughter, Sister Liesl (Mia Threapleton), as the sole heir to his vast estate. The film has been released in theatres, garnering attention for its unique storytelling and star-studded cast, further cementing Anderson's signature style. Meanwhile, Jodie Foster made her debut in French cinema with 'Vie privee' (A Private Life). The film premiered last month at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival, where The Phoenician Scheme was also in the running for the Palme d'Or. (ANI)
