The popular singer and actress is a 15-year survivor of breast cancer, and has plans to release a new album "A Celebration in Song" in September 2008. On the album, she teams up with Keith Urban, Barry Gibb, John Farrar, Delta Goodrem, Sun, Jann Arden, Amy Sky, RyanDan and Richard Marx.

Olivia Newton-John’s fight with breast cancer is very inspiring.

And just as I’m reading this, I’m thinking of a close relative of mine (who is also a Melburnian) who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. I’m praying that she makes it through.
