Former Coronation Street<\/a> actress Beverley Callard<\/a> was seen in tears as she issued an emotional update as she continues to recover from surgery.<\/a><\/p>\n

The 68 year old actress revealed earlier this month that she had been diagnosed with the early stages of breast cancer<\/a> during a candid interview on Ireland’s Late Late Show with Patrick Kielty. Soon after, she flew back to the UK to undergo an operation to remove lymph nodes as precaution.<\/p>\n

A week on from her surgery, Beverley appeared in a video to issue an update to her followers on Instagram \u2013 in which she tearfully revealed she was struggling. Beverley, who appeared makeup-free for the Instagram clip, candidly told her followers: “Full disclosure, it’s a week today since my operation and I woke up this morning and I put yesterday’s clothes on \u2013 which were dropped on the floor last night when I went to bed. I’ve not cleaned my teeth, I’ve not combed my hair. I can’t answer my phone because if somebody says a kind word to me, I just cry.”<\/p>\n

Holding back tears she continued: “And I’m so absolutely, absolutely rubbish today and I’ve been like that all day. I’m really tired, I keep feeling a bit queasy but I’ve no idea why. And I just thought, ‘oh well I’m not going to post anything today because I don’t want to make people feel miserable’ \u2013 but maybe you are feeling the same.”<\/p>\n

The soap actress then revealed she had received a touching letter from a supporter as she emotionally continued: “And, then \u2013 you wouldn’t believe this \u2013 I received this today in the post purely out of the blue.” She out her glasses on and held up a red heart-shaped pillow with a bow attached. The actress then explained: “It’s a heart shaped cushion and it’s from a lady called Catherine who I’ve never met, never seen but my daughter has met her recently and she told her what I was going through and she’s been through the same thing.” She then picks up a card and reads it: “And it says, ‘To Beverly I’m so sorry that you’re having to go through all of this. But I know you have great support, which is so important, and I’d be very happy to chat at any stage if you need a listening ear.<\/p>\n

“‘I found the underarm where the lymph nodes had been taken out so sore, and this pillow pops under your arm and helps to make it a bit more comfy. I found it especially useful when trying to sleep. With lots of love, Catherine’.” Beverley was then seen in tears as she continued: “And so I just thought tomorrow will be a better day and when I am really better, I’m going to give this as a gift to someone else who is going through it. Now, I’m going,” she announces before the camera cuts off.<\/p>\n

As she posted the video on her Instagram page, Beverley wrote in the caption: “Please bear with me\u2026 this was a tough one” followed by a red heart emoji. She was soon flooded with supportive comments as one fan wrote: “There’s some gorgeous people in this world<\/a>. How lovely was that to receive. Brighter days will come”. Another added: “Bev sending you big big hugs you are amazing”. And a third wrote: “You are going to have good and bad days. We aare all willing you to be better soon. Much love and many hugs sent your way bev”.<\/p>\n
