Personal health struggles shared by Hana Samsonova and Hana Dvorská

Two women have shared their personal experiences battling serious health conditions.

Hana Samsonova, a former translator, announced she is pregnant following a battle with aggressive breast cancer that began in 2022. After undergoing chemotherapy and biological treatments, which required a recovery period, she and her husband utilized IVF to conceive. Samsonova noted that after a year of unsuccessful natural attempts, they successfully obtained a healthy embryo through a reproductive center.

Hana Dvorská, a stuntwoman and StarDance participant, has disclosed that she is living with an inoperable tumor located in her brainstem. Because the tumor is situated in a region controlling vital functions like breathing and heart rate, surgical removal poses extreme risks. Dvorská has undergone gamma knife treatment to encapsulate the tumor, though she continues to experience vision and hearing impairments.
