Kylie Minogue says her cancer battle has made her more compassionate.
The diminutive pop star was diagnosed with breast cancer last May (05) and
has now explained in a candid TV interview how the terrifying ordeal allowed
her to bond with the sick children she meets through her charity work.
She said: "I think I was pretty compassionate before but now I have a much
deeper understanding of what it is to have a trial to go through.
"Now when I visit children's hospitals, which I always used to do before,
they know that I know."
The 'Spinning Around' singer was given the all clear at the beginning of the
year but confessed the gruelling chemotherapy treatment has left her with a
"mountain to climb" to get back to full health.
However, the determined star revealed in the exclusive interview - due to be
broadcast on satellite channel Sky One on Sunday (16.07.06) - that she is
busy getting herself back in shape for her renamed 'Showgirl Homecoming Tour
', which resumes in November.
She added: "I have to get on that walking machine and I've never been in
this situation before where I have to start from the beginning.
"I don't have the strength, I don't have the stamina. I don't have every
thing I took for granted before. So I've got a mountain to climb."
