Country music singer Ashley Monroe was diagnosed with Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, a rare form of blood cancer.
July 14 (UPI) — Ashley Monroe is going public with her blood cancer diagnosis. The 34-year-old country music singer said in an Instagram post Tuesday that she was recently diagnosed with Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, a rare form of blood cancer. Monroe shared the news alongside a slideshow of photos featuring her husband, John Danks, her 3-year-old son Dalton, her Pistol Annie bandmates Miranda Lambert and Angaleena Presley and other loved ones. In her post, Monroe said she learned she was anemic after some routine lab work. After her red blood cell count kept falling, Monroe underwent a bone marrow biopsy that showed she has a type of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
