Magda Szubanski reveals stage 4 cancer diagnosis | ABC NEWS
Magda Szubanski has been diagnosed with stage 4 Mantle Cell Lymphoma, a type of cancer that forms in the lymph nodes.
She announced her diagnosis on her Instagram account.
“Lovelies. Well. Some not great news. I’ve been diagnosed with stage 4 Mantle Cell Lymphoma—a rare and fast-moving blood cancer. It’s serious, but I’ve started one of the best treatments available (the Nordic protocol), and I’m lucky to be getting absolutely world-class care here in Melbourne.”
“I won’t sugar-coat it: it’s rough. But I’m hopeful. I’m being lovingly cared for by friends and family, my medical team is brilliant, and I’ve never felt more held by the people around me,” she wrote.
