Fonda, a vocal supporter of authenticity and transparency, announced her desire to undergo chemotherapy as part of her cancer treatment plan.
“Dear friends, there is something intimate I feel compelled to share,” she said on Instagram. I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and have begun chemotherapy.”
She noted, “Fortunately, this type of cancer is highly treatable, and I consider myself extremely fortunate because approximately 80% of patients overcome this disease.” I am fortunate to have access to outstanding medical specialists and cutting-edge therapy.
However, I am painfully aware that my situation is far from typical. It is inexcusable that other families across America are dealing with illness without access to my beautiful healthcare.”
“I am ready,” Fonda said emphatically to Entertainment Tonight. I’ve had a life entire with wonders and blessings. While hesitating to say goodbye, I recognize that my departure from this planet is imminent.”
