Net worth
Her earnings are estimated to range from around $5 million to $7 million. She gets most of these earnings from her professional career of playing billiards. Apart from the career, she at times sources her income from the leagues and contests that her local franchise of America organizes for her. In addition to that, she has been winning several championships nationally and internationally. This has dramatically increased her income as well. However, this was affected by the covid-19 pandemic that kind of lowered her earnings.
Health and disease updates
She was in good health until the year 2021 when she was diagnosed with cancer of the ovary. The terminal disease was realized very late when it was already in its fourth stage. She started undergoing chemotherapy, and throughout her treatment, she has been grateful. At some point in time, she thanked two of her friends, Jenny and Sonya, who she says stood with her and always brought her joy. We get to see that she has always been positive and determined to fight for her health no matter what. Apart from that, we also get to know that she has scoliosis;( a sideways bending of the spine, a disease that cannot be treated). With this, she is a great supporter of those who has scoliosis.
Despite the severe diseases Lee has been battling, we get to learn a lot from her. Her achievements are a source of motivation for many youngsters. For instance, she was ranked number one worldwide by Billiards digest as the best player of the year despite fighting scoliosis. We can as well see that she managed to bring up her daughters pretty well despite being a single mother.
