Linda Nolan shared fears before d3ath
Linda had been fighting cancer for several years before her tragic d3ath this week. She is the second Nolan sister to pass away, after Bernie’s d3ath from cancer in 2013.
I became so weak.
Recalling what would be her final Christmas, Linda described it as a “complete blow out” as she “hadn’t eaten for 11 days” after battling the flu.
The singer and TV star revealed she felt so bad that she feared the worst, as she candidly opened up in her last-ever column.

Linda Nolan thought ‘is this it?’
Linda explained: “The doctors say it’s been a bad case of flu. I became so weak I’d walk a few steps and struggle to catch my breath.
“My legs were even more wobbly than usual and of course although I try not to, I immediately thought of how Bernie was at the end. You think, ‘Oh my God, is this it?”
Linda went on to recall how on New Year’s Eve her family was “so worried” that they got Linda checked out at the hospital, where they gave her steroids as well as antibiotics.

Linda felt ‘so grateful’
She was sent home to rest but was told she could attend sister Coleen’s New Year’s Party.
But Linda was asleep by 10:10pm as for the “first time” in her life she “wasn’t in the mood for cuddles”.
Linda added: “Despite all the rubbish, I feel so grateful to be getting well again. I’ve never been keen on resolutions, but here’s one: it’ll take more than flu to finish me off.”
Linda received the all-clear from breast cancer in 2006 after her diagnosis a year before, but was later diagnosed with incurable secondary cancer in 2017.
Tragically, Linda succumbed to an incurable form of cancer, which had spread to her brain, at the age of 65.
