However, moments ago, Big Ang made her own statement to fans apologizing for not being the one to release the information to her fans. She went on to give the actual details of what exactly is going on at the moment. Her comment is a far cry from what was being reported earlier. Here is her statement. We are keeping Ang in our prayers and sending positive thoughts her way for a full and speedy recovery.

UPDATE: April 3rd - TMZ (link) has been speaking to Janine Detore, Big Ang's sister, who says doctors have determined the tumor is cancerous and they are running further tests to see if it has spread. Surgery to remove the tumor has been scheduled for next week.
