Sofia Vergara has opened up about her cancer battle, which has left her with a nasty scar.
The Colombian actress battled thyroid cancer in 2003 and admits it was a terrible time in her life - but the scar she was left with is a constant reminder to live life to the full.
She tells Self magazine, "When they (doctors) tell you that you have cancer, you panic. I had my thyroid gland removed, then radiation.
"It was hard, but now I'm in remission, and the scar doesn't bother me.
"After the surgery in 2003, I had my son Photoshop a Frankenstein scar on my neck and sent it to my friends and said, 'I'm fine, I look perfect!' It was really funny."
