Ana Rosa Quintana opens up about the hardest part of her hospital visits: “It breaks my soul”

The life of Ana Rosa Quintana changed drastically when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Since then, her treatments and check-ups have taken place, and, although she joined her position as a presenter months ago, the disease continues to leave her with painful experiences.

This was confirmed by the journalist herself in her conversation with Carmen Maura on Telecinco. Now that his work takes place in the afternoons, she takes advantage of the mornings to go to the hospital, where she now encounters new situations such as, for example, meeting children who also suffer from this disease.

“Before, I went late in the afternoon and didn’t meet anyone. Now I go in the morning and, when I’m waiting in the living room and I see so many children, it breaks my heart. The strollers, with the parents… And then running, playing with the probe on while they are being treated,” lamented the communicator.

After eleven months away from television, the presenter already lives her day-to-day life normally, although now her working day is reduced to four days. She said again at the premiere of her new show: “I’m not usually going to come on Fridays. My doctors think what I do is very good, but this is very stressful and they want me to rest a little more.”

A year has passed since the journalist returned to the small screen, when, optimistic and from the set, she was realistic: “It must be said that I am here because I have finished the treatment, but this continues. I will not be able to say that I am cured until “In five or seven years. It must be made very clear because other people are going through the same thing and this does not happen from one day to the next.”

The truth is that the presenter has always been very involved in following medical advice, as she told Informalia a few months after announcing his cancer: “Despite the good results, I am learning so many things… I have said ‘hello’ to vegetables and fruits, to natural and organic, goodbye to sugar, everything processed, fats, alcohol and everything we already know and don’t do. Eating well and exercising works.”

“I feel very well. Healthy food, training three days a week, yoga, long walks, enjoying family, the support of my colleagues, the thousands of people who send me their love, positive thinking and having the security that I am going to be cured thanks to our excellent doctors,” stated the presenter, who, as always, was clear when talking about the disease.
