“It’s cancer.” Every year, about two billion people in the world receive this diagnosis, and I am one of them.”

James Van Der Beek, 47, who became famous for his role as Dawson Leery in the series Dawson's Creek, has revealed that he is suffering from colorectal cancer: "There is no instruction manual on how to announce these things, but I had planned to speak in depth with "People magazine" at a certain time, to raise awareness and tell my story in my own way - wrote in a post the actor, married and father of six children -. But the plan was altered early this morning when I was informed that a tabloid would be publishing the news ".

"I've been dealing with this privately so far, taking care of myself and my general health more than ever," he added. " I'm doing well and feeling strong. It's been a remarkable initiation, and I'll tell you more when I'm ready ."

“I apologize to everyone in my life that I wanted to say this to,” he concluded. “Nothing on this journey has happened in the timeframe I would have preferred… But we accept it, facing each surprise as a signpost to a greater destiny than we would have discovered without divine intervention. Please know that we deeply appreciate all the love and support .”
