German actor Eric Braeden shared in a video on Friday that he has cancer and is currently undergoing immunotherapy treatment.
In a Facebook Live session last week, the 82-year-old actor revealed that he faced prostate issues during his recovery from knee-replacement surgery. After seeing doctors for his prostate problems, he underwent a procedure called UroLift. However, a doctor later discovered high-grade cancer cells near his bladder.
Braeden had surgery to remove the cancer cells and is now on a six-week immunotherapy plan. He spoke honestly to his fans about his diagnosis, encouraging older men to pay attention to their health.
The Emmy award-winning actor, known for his role as Victor Newman on The Young and the Restless, emphasized the importance of supporting loved ones dealing with cancer. He shared his determination to overcome the illness and reassured fans that he would be back in top form soon.
Despite facing health challenges, Braeden expressed gratitude for his work on The Young and the Restless, a role he has held since 1980. He appreciates the distraction and joy that acting brings to his life and thanked fans for their support.
We wish Eric Braeden all the best in his journey towards recovery and hope for a future without the presence of cancer in our world.
