Victorian upper house MP Fiona Patten has been diagnosed with cancer and will undergo surgery in the next few weeks to remove one of her kidneys.
“Many people stay silent upon a cancer diagnosis and are fearful of telling people because they will be judged or pitied. I want people to be able to talk about their health, be that physical or mental. I hope that by being public and transparent it might help others do the same.
Days after the election, Premier Daniel Andrews told the ABC he would offer Patten a job if she was not re-elected, saying her absence would be a “loss to the parliament”.
