Kate Micucci has shared a wonderful life update: She is now cancer-free!
The 43-year-old actress and comedian, known for her roles on The Big Bang theory and Scrubs, revealed last week that she had recently undergone surgery following a diagnosis of lung cancer.
Now, the actress is home from the hospital — and she has announced that she is cancer-free.
Kate took to TikTok to share the incredible news. She began:
“Hey everyone! I just wanted to thank you all so much for the good wishes and all the love that I have received this past week. It meant so much to me and really came at a time that I really needed it so thank you.”
She shared that she is now clear of lung cancer after her successful surgery last week:
“I have great news, which is that I am cancer free!
The surgery last week went great. All the reports came back that it worked, I don’t need to do any other treatment. So big thank you to all my doctors and nurses and everyone that took just really great care of me. And thanks to figuring it out early because I am very very lucky and I know that.”
Kate continued with these heartfelt words:
“I’m just really grateful that things worked out as they did. I’m feeling really good today and I’m honestly just so excited and truly grateful. So thank you all for all the prayers and wishes. I’m just glad I can report some good news to you.”
And she concluded by declaring that she’s “excited to hang with my little boy for Christmas,” and then sharing a clip of her 3-year-old son running up to her and giving her a kiss.
