Lucy Holmes broke down on air telling listeners she’ll need to take a break from the Lucy and Kel Show on 89.9LightFM Melbourne to undergo emergency surgery.
Lucy, who recently celebrated 12 years on Breakfast at the station, discovered that she has a form of severe endometriosis.
The grief attached to the news, and the potential of having no more children, led to many women calling in to share similar experiences.
Endometriosis affects 1 in 9 women in Australia and is one of the most debilitating and benign diseases facing women today. You can find more info or support here.
