Kate Micucci Reveals She Is Cancer-Free After Lung Surgery in December – The Hollywood Reporter

Kate Micucci says she’s cancer-free after undergoing surgery last week to treat a lung cancer diagnosis.

The Raising Hope and Big Bang Theory actress shared the news over the weekend on TikTok, where she confirmed that the surgery “went great” and the results “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, and thanks to figuring it out early,” she said in the video.

The actress added that she was “feeling really good today,” along with being both excited and “truly grateful” for the treatment outcome.

“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 the time that I really needed it,” she said. “I’m just glad I can report some good news to you, and yeah, I’m excited to hang with my little boy for Christmas.”

Micucci revealed that she had undergone surgery to remove lung cancer the previous weekend. In the brief message, which she described as a “SickTok,” a smiley Micucci shared footage of her walking around the hospital hallways and eating a hospital food spread featuring Frosted Flakes, while she assured fans she was going to be OK.

“I’m in the hospital, but it’s because I had lung cancer surgery yesterday. They caught it really early,” she said. “It’s pretty weird because I’ve never smoked a cigarette in my life. So, you know, it was a surprise, but also, I guess it happens.”

Micucci also shared a separate video to her TikTok responding to a news segment on her cancer surgery, just a day after her latest health update. “Very surreal to wake up on Thursday to find Good Morning America had done a story on my lung cancer diagnosis.”
