Victoria Jackson From “SNL” Shares That She Has An Inoperable Tumor

Victoria Jackson - former Saturday Night Live cast member from 1986 until 1992 - took to social media to share some news.

Jackson has recently been taking to Instagram to share updates on her cancer return, after having breast cancer a decade ago. This morning, however, she shared a new video in which she talked about where things currently stand. It doesn’t sound too good, unfortunately.

Jackson shared that there’s a tumor on her windpipe that doctors are unable to operate on. This tumor she says "eventually would suffocate me to death." She does say she’s received a “magic pill” to help her deal with the disease. That pill is a cancer growth blocker that will hopefully help shrink the tumor. However, the life expectancy she says is still around 32-34 months.

In the video, she did remain positive, saying that she’s had a “fantastic life.” Still, her goals she says are, “I’d like to see my grandson born — his name is Jimmy — in October, and get to know him a little. And I would like to see my daughter Aubrey have a baby.”

Jackson is perhaps best known as a former Saturday Night Live cast member. She was on the show as part of the 1980’s renaissance, once Lorne Michaels came back and fired practically everyone from the 1985-1986 season. She was best known for her Weekend Update features on the show, as well as impressions of celebrities such as Roseanne Barr. She also co-starred in the film UHF.
