The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders’ director, Kelli Finglass, has received an outpouring of support and blessings as she continues to fight her challenging battle with skin cancer. Finglass was first diagnosed with cancer after a routine check-up, and since then, she has taken on a mantle to spread awareness about the disease. In this crusade, Kelli Finglass shared a reel on Instagram about the recent development in her medical procedure.

“As I continue my journey from discovery to treatment of my skin cancers, I wanted to share something important,” the caption for Finglass’ reel said. “During a routine skin check, Dr. Allison Singer identified a squamous cell carcinoma on my forehead. 🔎What was meant to be a simple visit turned into something much more complex, but I’m so grateful the skin cancer was found early.”

In this video, Kelli Finglass shares about her Mohs surgery, a procedure to treat both common and rare types of skin cancer. Following each tissue excision during the operation, the excised tissue undergoes examination for the presence of cancer-causing cells. She signed off the reel by telling the viewers to stick to the basics to avoid such complications in the future.

“Do your skin checks, wear your sunscreen, and wear your hats,” Kelli Finglass said in her reel.

Finglass’ resilience comes as no surprise to those familiar with her journey with the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. She has been an integral part of the DCC’s success, first as a cheerleader in 1984, performing for five seasons before transitioning into a leadership role. Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones promoted her as assistant director in 1989. Cut to 1991, and she became the director.
