Actress, former model, and climate activist Jane Fonda disclosed her cancer diagnosis. After starting cancer treatments six months ago, the 84-year-old Oscar winner informed her Instagram followers that she was doing well.
I would like to share something personal with you, my dear friends. The Grace and Frankie star posted on Instagram, “My non-lymphoma Hodgkin’s lymphoma diagnosis and chemotherapy treatments have begun.” She clarified, “This is a fairly manageable illness, so I consider myself extremely fortunate.”
She continued by giving thanks to God for her “blessed” circumstances, stating that she is fortunate to have access to the greatest medical professionals and treatments. “I have access to the best specialists and therapies because of my health.”
Not leukemia Hodgkin’s disease is a kind of cancer that starts in the lymphatic system, which is a part of the immune system that protects the body from infection, according to the Mayo Clinic. White blood cells known as lymphocytes can proliferate uncontrollably in non-Hodgkin lymphoma, leading to the formation of growths (tumors) all throughout the body.
On social media, Fonda’s friends and fellow celebrities expressed their support and affection for her.
“Sending you healing energy, love, and strength,” wrote Debra Messing.
“Wishing you more love and strength than you can take,” tweeted Alyssa Milano. ” Kindly get in touch with me if you have any inquiries. Constantly accessible. Always.
In a letter to Jane, Diane Keaton said, “We adore you.” “To me, you are a hero.” You are a fighter. What you’ve accomplished has always amazed me.
