Patrice Aminati Posts Tearful Update, Says She Is Not Tolerating New Cancer Therapy

Her candid message highlights how taxing palliative treatment is for people living with metastatic melanoma.

Overview

  • In a Wednesday Instagram story, the 30-year-old said she does not tolerate the therapies well and added through tears that she would just like to keep living.
  • She began a new round of treatment after telling SWR’s Nachtcafé earlier this month that her cancer had returned with metastases in several organs.
  • The new regimen has meant near-daily hospital visits and left her so drained that she said she had crawled on all fours and spent recent days mostly in bed.
  • She expressed gratitude for nurses and leaned on family support, sharing small moments like gardening together and drawing strength from her young daughter.
  • She is slated to speak at a women’s evening in Dresden on April 21, staying publicly engaged as care now aims to extend life and ease symptoms rather than cure the disease.
