Former “Saturday Night Live” cast member Victoria Jackson is contemplating her mortality after revealing that she has an inoperable tumor in her windpipe.
In a new “Is The Cancer Back” video update posted to Instagram Wednesday, she explained that doctors “cannot operate and cut out the marble in my chest that is laying on my windpipe, and eventually would suffocate me to death.”
The comedian also shared that she may have about three years to live, after doing online research on the prescribed medication — referred to as a “magic pill.”
“It’s based on Ribociclib, and it will shrink the marble, hopefully,” she added in the clip. “I looked up the pill on Google and it says people who take this have 32.6 months to live — something like that.”
Reflectively, she told viewers that she’s had a “fantastic life” and was hoping to see her grandchildren born. In October, she’s expecting a grandson, whose name is Jimmy.
Jackson, 65, starred on “SNL” from 1986 to 1992 — portraying famous figures of the time such as actresses Zsa Zsa Gabor, Roseanne Barr and Sally Struthers.
The “Is My Bow Too Big? How I went from SNL to the Tea Party” author, who in recent years caused a firestorm with her anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, revealed her breast cancer diagnosis in 2016.
In 2023, she caused an uproar after telling city council officials in Franklin, Tenn. that “God hates sodomy” and “homosexuality,” calling it an “abomination” in her protest of a planned Gay Pride parade.
