Nivea revealed an unfortunate health update during a recent drive around Atlanta with CadillacChroniclesTV.
After she performed a couple of her classic hits plus a new track from an upcoming project, host Mr. Brian Freeman asked the R&B singer what she was thankful for and that when she broke the news that she’s been battling leukemia.
“Well, first of all, I was diagnosed with leukemia earlier this year, and I’m so grateful to God,” she told Freeman. “I’ve been going through treatment, and everything is going great, so far. And I expect it to continue. Amen, amen, amen. Very grateful for life. It’s so cliché to say you don’t know the time nor the hour, but it’s true and it just helped me put a lot of things in perspective, and I live in gratitude, like, religiously, and I’m just grateful for everything.”
She’s staying positive, though, as she’s back focusing on her music and is currently enrolled in audio engineering school. “I’m doing things I wanna do,” the 44-year-old mother of four said. “I’m definitely back into my music, and I’m going to school for audio engineering. I’ve always wanted to learn how to engineer, and mixing engineering in particular.”
Nivea then said that she’s trying to be “more present in the the moment” as she continues to love her kids while also being grateful and taking every opportunity that comes her way.
The Grammy-nominated artist did not specify which form of the blood cancer that she’s currently fighting.
