Brinkley used this moment to turn her personal story into a cautionary message about sun safety and the importance of regular checkups.
Brinkley’s Health Wake-Up Call
“Good news is avoidable with proper sun protection,” she urged. “Admittedly, I’m late to the game, but I’m catching up with SPF 30, repeated applications, long sleeves, wide-brimmed hats, and thorough body checkups—a non-negotiable routine.”
Lucky for Brinkley, her cancer was caught fortuitously. “At my daughter’s appointment, the doctor examined every freckle. I almost didn’t mention a tiny spot I felt under my makeup. Luckily, I did, and the doctor wanted a biopsy immediately. It’s proof that regular checkups can save lives. Be proactive—book that appointment and lather on sunscreen, friends!” she concluded with gratitude towards her healthcare providers.
Brinkley didn’t let the diagnosis overshadow her joyous 70th birthday celebration, shared in a swimsuit snapshot. She accompanied the moment with an inspiring poem, concluding with, “Laugh and love fiercely…and I assure you, 70 will be incredible!”
