Marcia Cross finds it “hard” to manage her life after cancer.
The 62-year-old actress was diagnosed with anal cancer in 2018 and has been in remission since the following year but admitted that it can be difficult to “keep up” with things like appointments in the time that has followed and makes a concerted effort to use sunscreen to protect herself now.
I just have to [use sunscreen] — I don’t want skin cancer. That just has to be for every person on the planet now. It’s kind of a no-brainer. Protect your skin. “It’s so hard, but you just have to keep up with all your appointments. It’s hard to stay on top of all that, but you know, it’s lifesaving.”
The former ‘Desperate Housewives’ star was made aware of her cancer when her gynecologist found a malignant mass during a routine digital rectal exam, and she later admitted that she had never even thought that anything would be wrong because she hadn’t noticed any symptoms at all.
Speaking on ‘CBS This Morning’, she said: “I was so not thinking anything was wrong because I didn’t have any symptoms. [My doctor] gave me an exam and she came around and said, ‘Well, I just want you to know whatever it is, it’s curable.”
The ‘Everwood’ actress underwent 28 radiation appointments and a couple of rounds of chemotherapy to combat the disease, and then took to her social media early 2020 to give her fans and followers the good news that she had beaten cancer.
She wrote: “All good now. Hard journey, but I am HEALTHY, happy and more present and grateful than ever. Thank you from the bottom of my ever expanding heart for all of your LOVE.”
