@julianthorne.us: Kris Jenner is terrified that her daughter Kim Kardashian could face the same illness that took her father's life. And watching Kim undergo another round of medical testing has brought back painful memories. During the November 5 episode of The Kardashians, Kris accompanied the 46-year-old reality star to a medical appointment to check whether her esophagitis had improved with medication. But doctors had another concern. They wanted to examine irregularities in Kim's esophagus and determine whether there were any precancerous changes. The situation is especially frightening because Kim's father, Robert Kardashian, passed away from esophageal cancer in 2003 at just 59 years old, only eight weeks after his diagnosis. Kim also revealed that her father suffered from GERD, a condition doctors identify as a common cause of esophageal cancer. Now, Kim is facing the possibility of surgery if medication fails to resolve the irregularities. Doctors may need to remove part of her esophagus. Kris admitted she was struggling to hide her fear from her daughter. “Of course I'm scared. I don't want to tell her I'm scared, but it's very worrisome. We just pray for the best,” she said. A preview of the next episode also reveals that Kim has been diagnosed with a hiatal hernia, another condition her father reportedly experienced. For Kris, the thought of reliving the family's painful past is terrifying. And for Kim, getting answers has never felt more personal. \#KimKardashian #KrisJenner #TheKardashians #CelebrityNews #healthupdate
