As a follower and admirer of James Van Der Beek‘s work, I find myself deeply moved by his recent revelation about his battle with colorectal cancer. Despite the unexpected turn of events, he has shown an incredible amount of courage, resilience, and grace in dealing with this challenging situation.
Actor James Van Der Beek, famous for his roles in “Dawson’s Creek” and “Don’t Trust the B in Apartment 23,” has revealed to People magazine that he was recently diagnosed with colorectal cancer. He expressed optimism about his condition, saying, “There’s reason for optimism, and I’m feeling good.” Van Der Beek shared that since receiving the diagnosis, he has been quietly managing this health issue and taking necessary steps towards recovery, with the help of his loving family. As per the American Cancer Society, colorectal cancer is one of the most common types, with approximately 106,590 new cases of colon cancer and 46,220 new cases of rectal cancer reported annually.
On Instagram, James Van Der Beek revealed that he was compelled to disclose his health situation before he felt ready. “There’s no guide for how to share such news, but I had planned to discuss it extensively with People magazine at some point in the near future… to raise awareness and tell my story on my own terms,” he penned. “However, those plans had to be adjusted this morning when I learned that a tabloid was going to publish the news.” Van Der Beek then expressed regret to those he wished to inform personally for finding out via People. “Nothing about this experience has followed my preferred schedule,” he wrote. “But we adapt as we go along.
During his treatment, Van Der Beek continues to work and has been announced for an appearance on “The Real Full Monty” in December. This special, lasting two hours, features famous male personalities stripping down to raise awareness about prostate, testicular, and colorectal cancer screenings and research. Among the stars confirmed for “The Real Full Monty” are Van Der Beek, Taye Diggs, and Bruno Tonioli from “Dancing With the Stars”.
