This season of Top Chef has only just begun, and cheftestant Fatima Ali has already emerged as a top contender for the coveted grand prize, having wowed the judges with just about every dish that she's prepared so far.
But now Fatima, 28, is unfortunately facing one of the biggest challenges of her life. The Top Chef contestant was recently diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma, a type of bone and soft tissue cancer, and has undergone four rounds of chemotherapy this fall.
Fatima has kept fans updated on her journey on Instagram, giving a glimpse into her treatment and the little things that are helping her stay strong during this difficult time. "Embracing the new look as cancer treatment continues," Fatima captioned one photo of herself on Instagram in November. "I know a little piece of me has changed already and as each new challenge is conquered with the help of my family and friends, I can only hope to emerge even more resilient, honest and kind."
