Kylie has spoken before about how life changes dramatically after the battle against cancer. ???I learned that you never go back to a normal state, instead you have to create a new normal state. I have to accept my life for its triumphs and its other sides, take the good with the bad. I experienced a world of illness and positive attitudes. These experiences contributed to making me a more mature person."
