Robin Quivers reveals struggle with cancer, how eating clean changed her life on Howard Stern's SiriusXM radio show (Video)

Robin Quivers, Howard Stern’s longtime sidekick, revealed some personal news about her health on today’s SiriusXM radio show. She opened up about her battle with cancer and how becoming a vegan helped her recover.

After undergoing chemotherapy and having surgery to remove a large mass in her pelvic area, her doctors say she’s now cancer-free. She has been absent from Stern’s radio show for a year, and explained her absence on Monday to let listeners in on her condition.

Stern said, "I was already making funeral arrangements. Not to make light of this situation, but I was freaking out. It was just this f***ing crazy thing that came out of left field and it was going down real quick,” CNN reports.

But after Quivers revealed her struggle with beating cancer, she revealed some happy news.

"(The doctor) just looks at everything and she goes, 'You're cured. You're done. You can just leave here. You know, the protocol is to scan you every three months and do all this stuff, but we don't really have to, because you're cured,'" she said.

Stern expressed his relief, saying "I can't tell you when you see a friend, a life-long friend, going through this, what it's like. I'll be honest. I thought she was a goner. You bet against anybody else except Robin,” LA Times notes.

Her cookbook, which is part memoir, The Vegucation of Robin comes out on Oct. 1. She said of getting better and eating clean, “I couldn't believe the difference I saw."
