Baywatch<\/em> star Nicole Eggert<\/strong>\u2018s cancer battle is sadly far from over.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In case you haven\u2019t heard the sad news<\/a>, the actress, who played Summer Quinn on the iconic TV hit, found out in December she has a very rare type of breast cancer called cribriform carcinoma. In an interview with Inside Edition<\/em> on Thursday, she explained the struggles she had even getting a clear diagnosis. The 52-year-old became worried when she noticed \u201crapid weight gain and fatigue\u201d and found a painful lump on her breast. But she struggled to secure a mammogram app<\/a>ointment:<\/p>\n

\u201cNobody could take me so I walked into every breast care center like, \u2018Please, please, please.\u2019 It\u2019s horrifying because every minute in every day that passes you know it\u2019s growing.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/div>\n

So scary!<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Eventually, she was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer, and told People<\/em> back in December she\u2019s going to have to go through chemotherapy, as well as surgery to try and remove it. Sadly, though, her most recent update revealed doctors may have found MORE problem areas in her lymph nodes.<\/p>\n

Speaking to IE<\/em>, she said her biggest regret is not doing regular self-exams \u2014 as well as the breast implants she got when she was only a teen on the iconic television show:<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

\u201cThe self-exams, I\u2019m telling you, I kick myself [for not doing them frequently]. That\u2019s the one thing I should have been doing \u2026 If I didn\u2019t have [breast implants] and I had my smaller, natural breasts, I am sure I would have felt it much sooner. [When I found out I had cancer] my heart dropped, I lost all hearing, everything sank.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Sadly, the Charles in Charge<\/em> alum says her time on Baywatch<\/em> pressured her into getting the \u201cmistake\u201d breast enhancement procedure to begin with:<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n

\u201cWhen I was on Baywatch<\/em>, it was very in to be very thin with big boobs. I was the opposite, so I was wearing this red bathing suit that was flattening me, the one piece, and it just, it was like, \u2018Oh, man.\u2019 There\u2019s nothing you can do. You can\u2019t stuff it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The actress, who is a single mom of two, admitted the scariest part of this whole thing is the thought of leaving her family alone:<\/p>\n

\u201c[My eldest daughter is] an adult, but I have a 12-year-old at home where I\u2019m the only caregiver. I have no family. I have nothing. It immedia<\/a>tely made me realize, there\u2019s just no succumbing to this. This is something I have to get through.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/div>\n

She\u2019s so brave, we can\u2019t imagine how scary this is for her\u2026<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Nicole hasn\u2019t been a successful actress in a long time, and medical expenses in this country are staggering. So a friend, Mindy Molinary<\/strong>, set up a GoFundMe<\/strong> campaign for her to help cover the cost of medical expenses. She wrote in the description:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a long time since\u00a0Charles in Charge<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Baywatch<\/em>. As a single mom, she\u2019s had to struggle financially to raise her two daughters. She still has a little one at home and she is terrified of not being able to afford the treatments and surgery necessary while also keeping a roof over their heads. She\u2019s lost both her parents and doesn\u2019t have any family to lean on or help her with this situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
