Karise’s cancer scare: ‘I’m going to be ok’

Karise's cancer scare: 'I'm going to be ok'

The Voice star’s had a turbulent year, including a cancer scare and an emotional breakdown. Now, that’s behind her.

Looking every inch the superstar, The Voice winner Karise Eden last week wowed the show’s coaches and viewers performing her new single Threads of Silence. But just last month, she was facing the possibility of losing her voice – or even worse.

Karise, 20, from the NSW Central Coast, dreaded a heartbreaking diagnosis when she found a growth in her throat. “I had a lump removed from my throat whilst I got my wisdom teeth out,”she wrote on her Facebook page.

But after a tense wait, Karise was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. “Pathology results are in and I’m all CLEAR!! Just a benign lump!!” the singer wrote. “So happy to share the good news, have a great day!!! I’ll be sleeping a lot easier now.”

Karise was inundated with messages from fans. “Great news!” said one. “Congratulations, so happy and can’t wait to hear that beautiful voice of yours again soon,” wrote another.
