Former Indian cricket star Navjot Singh Sidhu has provided an update on his wife Navjot Kaur’s recovery from breast cancer surgery. Kaur underwent a second surgery last month, and Sidhu has been sharing her progress with fans on social media.
In an update on Saturday, Sidhu said that 70 stitches have been removed from Kaur’s wound, which is healing well. However, there is still a 2.5-inch area that requires daily dressing under the supervision of Dr. Manpreet Thind. Sidhu is waiting for the wound to fully heal before beginning the necessary radiation therapy.
“Keeping fingers crossed….. hopeful for a full recovery within 2 weeks to start the radiation treatment as planned,” Sidhu wrote on Twitter.
Sidhu also posted a couple of pictures with his wife and the doctor who has been treating her. In one of the pictures, Kaur is seen standing on her own two feet, a sign of her progress.
“Back on her feet … discharged from Hospital … one month recovery time before 25 radiation sessions … Big thank you to Dr Rupinder and the staff … indebted forever,” Sidhu wrote.
Earlier, Sidhu had revealed that his wife had undergone an operation for Metastasis, a rare condition that prompted the doctors to remove her affected skin and reconstruct it.
“Operation for rarest of rare Metastasis – lasted three and a half hours. Affected skin removed and reconstruction done with flaps. Her resolve is steadfast, the smile never leaves her face – courage thy name is Noni. Dr Rupinder hoping for a speedy recovery,” Sidhu had written.
While his wife’s health and recovery remain a priority, Sidhu is expected to continue entertaining fans with his commentary in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 campaign.
