Marisa Jara is one of the most important actresses, models and diversity activists in our country. Last year was one of the most difficult for the Sevillian, since the spontaneous abortion she suffered was compounded by a malignant tumor in the ovary that made her undergo surgery and undergo treatment.
”I want to thank you all for your messages with so much love and affection that I write to you and tears come to my eyes because this affection reaches me and makes me stronger,” the mannequin wrote from the hospital after waking up from the intervention. .
This was not the first time that Marisa Jara had faced the disease that causes more than 100,000 deaths in our country every year, since in 2018 she successfully underwent surgery to end the stomach cancer she suffered from.
Furthermore, throughout her life, the Andalusian has faced other health challenges that have put her physique to the limit. Although she does not hide it, not many people know that doctors have had to intervene on the actress on 19 occasions due to the endometriosis that she suffers from.
As a consequence of the operations and the different treatments he has undergone in recent years, Jara has a large scar in his belly area. In a recent report for Lecturas magazine, the actress has opened up and expressed that, despite many asking her why she doesn’t remove her scar, she has decided to embrace it and accept it.
”You have to love yourself, but society doesn’t help, on the networks people keep calling you fat,” she expressed in the conversation with the media. Furthermore, the model has explained that the physical mark that she has in her abdominal area has closed many doors for her: ”I have lost jobs because of my scar.”
After a dark time in her life, the model has begun a calmer and happier period that is marked by good medical results and new professional projects.
A few weeks ago, Telecinco premiered in prime time Desnudos por la vida, a new program in which celebrities ‘undress’ to talk about cancer prevention and the acceptance and diversity of bodies. As it could not be otherwise, Mediaset España wanted to have Jara for this project. In the interview for Readings, the model explained that she feels very happy to contribute to the cause, but that it was very hard to open up emotionally in the television space.
