Canada's Gabriela Dabrowski revealed Tuesday that her run to a bronze medal at the Olympics in Paris came while she received treatment for breast cancer.
"How can something so small cause such a big problem? This is the question I asked myself when I was diagnosed with breast cancer back in mid-April," the 32-year-old doubles specialist wrote on Instagram.
"I know this will come as a shock to many, but I am okay and I will be okay. Early detection saves lives. I can wholeheartedly agree with this."
