Veteran actress Jane Fonda, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010, realised that she is not afraid of dying.
The 75-year-old Oscar-winning actress said she never feared her own mortality at any stage and was determined to fight the disease like countless other brave women across the world, reported Contactmusic.
"(It) was a good test, because I always said I'm not afraid of dying. And I wasn't. I mean, I felt (that), god, I've just joined a family of millions of women who have gone through this. And how interesting. What a journey this is going to be," she said.
The 'Monster-in-Law' star had a small tumour which was non-invasive. After having it surgically removed she was given the all-clear and told she was "100 per cent cancer-free" just a few months later.
