Sonya Kraus has been under medical treatment since her cancer diagnosis in autumn 2021. Now the TV presenter has revealed which medical sessions are still ahead of her and what ailments she is struggling with.
Sonya Kraus, 48, has had to undergo chemotherapy for several hours for her breast cancer for five months. The mother of two had previously opted for a bilateral mastectomy: the amputation of both breasts. In an interview with “Bild”, she explained how the moderator is doing at the moment and which situation is currently the most difficult for her to manage.
Sonya Kraus: “I really suffered there”
“Four more weeks and then I’ll be through with the chemo,” reveals Sonya Kraus in an interview. Of course she also suffers from some side effects and consequences of the intensive radiation, but these are just “zippers”, as the 48-year-old emphasizes. “[…] I don’t focus on that. I have a different way of thinking,” said Kraus. There was something worse for her that was mentally stressful.
“Lying in bed, sleeping in and relaxing – those were the worst days for me. I really suffered there,” admits the moderator. No wonder, after all, the former model has been in the limelight for decades. Before the shocking diagnosis, doing nothing was an impossibility in Kraus’ life.
“Complexion impresses with elegant pallor”
Just a few weeks ago, the 48-year-old revealed that she no longer has any natural eyelashes and her hair has almost completely fallen out. On Instagram, Kraus wrote in her well-known self-ironic tone: “Fringe of hair around the front is still okay, bald head at the back. Goodbye eyelashes, but the wrong ones also stick bomb on the skin [sic]. Complexion impresses with elegant pallor. All in all? YAY. Runs with me!” Her fans are not only grateful for so much honesty, they are also happy that the presenter has not lost her sense of humor in all the stressful time.
