In 2003, Bates was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, but it was not public knowledge until January 2009 when she stated that she had been “in total remission” for more than five years.

Two years later at the New York Walk for Lymphedema & Lymphatic Diseases, Kathy revealed (in a pre-recorded message) that she has lymphedema in her arms as a result of the double mastectomy, and she began serving on the Lymphatic Education & Research Network’s honorary board as a chairperson later that year. Bates also became a spokesperson for lymphedema, and in 2018, she took part in Capitol Hill Lobby Day in an attempt to get more research funding for the condition and spoke at the DC/VA Walk to Fight Lymphedema & Lymphatic Diseases. She was honored with a 2018 WebMD Health Heroes “Game Changer” Award for her dedication to raising awareness of lymphedema.
