Linda Nolan has spoken devastatingly about watching others ring the cancer bell knowing she never will again.<\/p>\n
The 64-year-old star was first diagnosed with stage three breast cancer in 2005 before being told she was tumour-free a year later.<\/p>\n
But Linda revealed last month that the secondary cancer discovered on her pelvis in 2017 had spread to her brain, and she admitted undergoing treatment has become a \u2018way of life\u2019 for her now.<\/p>\n
Writing about how she knows she won\u2019t beat cancer for a third time in her newspaper column, the star shared: \u2018I went off to have my sixth cycle [of chemotherapy]. It\u2019s become a way of life now.\u2019<\/p>\n
Linda continued in the Sunday Mirror: \u2018I know the nurses \u2014 they\u2019re a great ear, they listen if you need to chat or are feeling low.<\/p>\n
\u2018And I people-watch, listen to the bleeps and the clapping when those finishing treatment ring the bell. That\u2019s lovely, I\u2019m always happy for them, but I rang that bell twice. And I know now I won\u2019t be ringing it again.\u2019<\/p>\n

She continued: \u2018That doesn\u2019t make me angry though, we\u2019re all on our own pathways here on the great chemo ward conveyor belt. And for now, mine runs straight ahead.\u2019<\/p>\n
Linda did add that she\u2019d received \u2018good news\u2019 from her consultant this week because tests showed her tumours are not currently growing any bigger.<\/p>\n
Last month, singer and actress Linda revealed she no longer fears death amid her cancer diagnosis.<\/p>\n
The star said she isn\u2019t scared of dying because her\u00a0sister Bernie<\/strong>\u00a0appeared in a dream to help her get her will together.<\/p>\n \u2018What happens when you die is a frightening thought,\u2019 she said.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
