‘SNL’ Alum Victoria Jackson Reveals She Has an Inoperable Tumor in Her Windpipe, Tells Fans: ‘I’ve Had a Fantastic Life’
variety.comZack Sharf Digital News Director Victoria Jackson, who was a cast member on “Saturday Night Live” from 1986 to 1992, revealed on social media that she has been diagnosed with an inoperable tumor in her windpipe.
She said doctors “cannot operate and cut out the marble in my chest that is laying on my windpipe, and eventually would suffocate me to death.” “They’re giving me a magic pill,” Jackson added about her treatment. “It’s going to be delivered to my front door within the next 12 hours.
