Tammy van Wisse

In October 2022, van Wisse was diagnosed with breast cancer. Following the diagnosis, she underwent a double mastectomy; however, her recovery was complicated by a severe infection and septicaemia, which required multiple emergency surgeries to stabilize her condition. She subsequently endured six months of chemotherapy and radiation therapy before being declared in remission in July 2023. In October 2025, approximately two years after entering remission, van Wisse announced that her cancer had returned. After experiencing pain she initially attributed to physical training, medical scans revealed she had developed stage 4 metastatic breast cancer, which had spread to her lungs and bones. Although the condition was diagnosed as incurable, van Wisse stated that it remains treatable, and she subsequently began a regimen of hormone and radiation therapy to manage the illness. ==References==
