The singer was operated on for cancer on September 4 and had her stitches removed at an oncology checkup on September 29. Saska Karan, with whom she once feuded, also got in touch.
Singer Milica Dugalic spoke publicly about her recovery for the first time on September 29, 2026, after a checkup at the oncology clinic. She was operated on for cancer on September 4, and her stitches were removed at the appointment. She gave the statement to the portal Hype TV, and other media picked it up.
Twenty-five days passed between the surgery and the checkup. Here is what she said.
How does she feel after the stitches came out?
Asked how she was doing, she answered right away.
“Thank you for asking, I’m perfectly fine. I just finished my checkup at the oncology clinic, they took my stitches out. The surgery went well, and now the recovery is going at its own pace. I feel good, I’m following all the instructions I was given and moving on. The whole time I stayed positive and thought that life goes on”, Milica Dugalic told Hype TV.
So the stitches are out, the surgery, in her words, went well, and she is sticking to the instructions she received.
What did her doctor tell her?
She also described what her doctor said after the examination.
“The doctor told me just now: ‘Milica, it will be excellent’, and I believe him. Trust between a patient and a doctor is the most important thing, and the two of us have that kind of relationship. The doctor is great, and I’m an obedient patient. Then everything goes at its own pace, it takes time, of course”, the singer explained.
Who supported her through the surgery?
Her family. Milica Dugalic listed who stood by her and singled out her older sister Milena, who came from Kosovska Mitrovica and was with her before and after the operation.
“The biggest support during this period was my family. My daughter, grandchildren, son-in-law, husband. My older sister came from Kosovska Mitrovica, she was by my side the whole time, both before and after the surgery. She is someone I can lean on. Both me and my younger sister. Since our parents are gone, Milena has taken on the role of head of the family”, Milica said.
Who reached out after their feud?
Besides her family, colleagues from the entertainment scene also called her. Among them was Saska Karan, with whom Milica Dugalic had been in conflict before. Milica brought it up herself.
“Colleagues are calling me, I spoke last with Maja Odzaklijevska, but quite a lot of them really called. Ena and Peja called, even Saska Karan got in touch, a woman I was at war with at one point. But she reached out, and sent me her support”, Milica Dugalic revealed to Hype TV.
The statement does not say what the earlier conflict was about.
