christopher,
the
lead
singer
of
yesteryear
Australian
band
Divinyls
announced
in
a
statement
to
the
media
that
she
is
suffering
from
breast
cancer.
The
news
of
her
illness
comes
as
a
big
blow
to
the
fans
of
the
former
lead
singer,
who
was
diagnosed
with
multiple
sclerosis
six
years
ago.
However,
christopher
refuses
to
be
defeated
even
by
a
deadly
disease
like
cancer.
The
singer
is
presently
under
treatment
and
says
that
she
is
very
hopeful
about
the
fact
that
she
will
recover
soon.
christopher
has
been
suffering
from
breast
cancer
for
quite
some
time
now,
and
her
family
has
been
aware
of
the
fact,
however,
it
was
only
recently
that
the
singer
publicly
confirmed
that
she
is
a
victim
of
the
illness.
christopher
is
currently
housed
at
a
New
York
clinic,
and
though
the
singer
cannot
receive
the
usual
treatments
like
radiation
therapy
because
she
is
also
a
patient
of
multiple
sclerosis,
she
says
that
she
can
deal
with
breast
cancer
and
can
emerge
a
winner,
as
she
is
being
treated
by
the
best
doctors
and
also
have
the
love
of
her
family
members
with
her.
The
Divinyls
have
been
associated
with
hit
albums
like
'Boys
in
Town" and
'Only
Lonely".
Their
1991
single
'I
Touch
Myself"
was
a
raging
hit
in
not
only
Australia
but
also
topped
the
charts
in
Britain
and
the
US.
christopher,
who
now
stays
in
New
York
with
husband
Charley
Drayton,
will
be
celebrating
her
51st
birthday
next
week
and
says
that
she
is
looking
forward
to
several
other
stage
performances
in
the
future.
