Natalie Cole Takes Chemo In Her Dressing Room

What a trooper. Instead of canceling her tour after being diagnosed with Hepatitis C and needing aggressive chemotherapy, Natalie Cole took her treatments backstage before her shows. Nat says, “Whatever horror stories you have heard about chemo is true. It is absolutely one of the most debilitating and difficult experiences that could ever happen to a human being. Trying to perform was a real challenge. Just picture an IV hanging from a wardrobe rack in my dressing room in Japan as I tried to prepare for two shows in a night."
