Update: Slick Woods Diagnosed With Stage 3 Skin Cancer

Details have emerged from Fenty fashion model Slick Woods about her cancer diagnosis after she announced she had been undergoing chemotherapy yesterday. The 23-year-old reveals she’s battling melanoma, and her cancer is in its third stage. The Shade Room reached out to the mother after her announcement left out specific details about her sickness.

Slick simply wrote, “How I feel about chemotherapy, shout out to everyone that gotta go through it. #atleastimalreadybald.”

In a quote from TSR, Slick said she’s “fighting for her life.”

Love and light to this young lady. Melanoma is defined as a tumor of melanin-forming cells, especially a malignant tumor associated with skin cancer. According to the Healthline, the survival rate for stage 3 melanoma is anywhere from 40 to 78 percent, depending on the location and size of the melanoma. Treatment includes surgery and chemotherapy.

So far, slick has been brave on social media, telling supporters that she’s no “victim”, under a photo of her baby boy.

We hope she gets well fast!
