She laughed while recalling that she would try her best not to need go to the bathroom while wearing those pants.<\/span>This is one of the many costumes that the actress is planning to auction off for charity. A portion of the proceeds will be going towards her Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness and Research Center in Melbourne, Australia. She founded the wellness and research center during her own ongoing battle with breast cancer, which she is now fighting for the third time. She told Gayle that the pain can sometimes be \u201creally bad.\u201d<\/span>

She also showed Gayle the marijuana plants she\u2019s been growing to help combat that pain<\/a>. She\u2019s been very open about her use of medical cannabis during her cancer battle. Despite everything, she manages to keep a positive outlook on life. \u201cIn my opinion, if they give you a percentage, or you know, \u2018This many women get this, and they live this long,\u2019 you can create that and make it happen,\u201d Newton-John explained. She believes not knowing how long she has left will help her live longer.<\/span>\u201cIt\u2019s almost like \u2014 I think I know what the statistics are, but I put them away. But I\u2019m gonna live longer than that. I\u2019ve made that decision. And I don\u2019t buy into the statistics, because I think they can make you really nervous,\u201d she said.<\/span>
\n<\/span>\"\"<\/span>Photo: YouTube\/CBS Sunday Morning<\/a><\/span>Newton-John even went as far to joke that \u201cdenial is really healthy.\u201d She elaborated, \u201cIt was consuming my day, and after some time I went, \u2018You know what? I don\u2019t know what my time is, but I need to enjoy my life, so I\u2019m gonna eat a cookie if I want it, and I\u2019m gonna have a cup of tea if I want it, and if I want to have a little bit of wine, then I\u2019m gonna do that.’\u201d<\/span>Check out the full interview with Gayle King on CBS Sunday Morning below.<\/span>Proper BCS greatergood_ctg_abovevideo<\/span><\/span>Source<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
