Little Women: LA’s Terra Jole breaks down in tears as she reveals she has breast cancer & must undergo double mastectomy
TERRA Jole has revealed she was diagnosed with breast cancer and must undergo a double mastectomy.
The Little Women: LA star shared the news in a heartbreaking Instagram post on Friday.
Terra, 41, sat at the dining room table where she filmed a video making the difficult call to tell her mom she has breast cancer.
The reality star appeared nervous as she prepared to dial her mom’s number, saying her “heart was racing.”
At first, her mom didn’t answer and the call was forwarded to voicemail, but finally, she answered.
Terra began the conversation: “Hi mom. Before I tell you what I’m about to tell you…”

Her mother then interjected to say she was going to “sit down” as she was worried the news would be “that bad.”
“It’s not that bad,” the Lifetime star assured, adding: “I just want you to know that you don’t need to worry like everything’s going to be okay.
“And the only reason I didn’t tell you is cause I don’t want you to worry,” she continued.
“Next week I am having a doubled mastectomy because I have breast cancer,” Terra revealed, breaking down in tears.
