    Fingers crossed they've caught it early enough. Hoping he makes a full recovery!

    Did anyone actually read the article? He said he's had it for "six or seven" years, but it hasn't spread. So, for now, it's not serious, and he gets tested regularly.

    (Cancer) is never late, Frodo Baggins. Nor is (it) early. (it) arrives precisely when he means to.

    If he has had for six or seven years then I would assume he would be fine. Of course, I am no doctor. But I would expect cancer such as this to have spread by now. I wish him the best.

    Yeah this really isn't news. It's been well known for several years now. Glad to hear he's keeping it under control.

    I hope he gets better. I don't want to lose him. Not a LOTR fans but he was great as Magneto.

    I hope he has a quick recovery because he is one the greatest actors of our generation. He was a fantastic Magneto and Gandalf.
