Anybody who has gone through a life-changing experience will tell you there is a different understanding of what is real and what is important, and when you are going through different moments, you can reflect and go, 'I have been through worse.'

I feel I lost my innocence to cancer.

I was at number one in Australia with both my album and my single. And then I was told I had cancer. I thought, 'What a strange turn of events.'

Im thankful for my songs being at the top of the charts but I am human - I think people still have to remember that.

Everything was going for me, I didn't even know the meaning of the word insecurity and suddenly I am surrounded by words like operation, cancer, chemotherapy, radiation.

Now I know you should listen to what your body is telling you.

Most people's journeys haven't been as disjointed as mine.
