This Thursday the protagonist of Grace and Frankie revealed through a post on Instagram that her cancer is in remission: “Last week my oncologist told me that my cancer is in remission and that I can stop chemotherapy. I feel so blessed, so lucky. I thank all of you who they prayed and sent me good thoughts. I trust that it played a role in the good news,” the veteran interpreter wrote gratefully.

As the American Cancer Society explains, Jane’s non-Hodgkin lymphoma is one of the most common cancers in the United States. It begins in white blood cells called lymphocytes, which are part of the body’s immune system.

The charismatic star has also explained how he has coped with the delicate treatment: “I am especially happy because while my first 4 chemotherapy treatments were quite easy for me, only a few days of exhaustion, the last chemotherapy session was difficult and lasted 2 weeks, which that made it difficult for me to achieve anything.”

The actress has never hidden the different and serious health problems she has faced throughout her life. In a 2019 interview published in British Vogue, she confirmed: “I’ve had a lot of cancer, and I often see dermatologists for removal procedures.” She also revealed in 2010 that she had a non-invasive breast tumor removed and later she was able to announce that she was finally “cancer free”.

Faced with this new healing process, Fonda was also grateful for having been able to continue his intense public activity. “The effects wore off just as I went to Washington for the first live, in-person rally of Fire Drill Fridays. Thank God for that because it was a busy week “he explained in the letter.

Fire Drill Fridays is an organization to denounce and fight climate change led by the actress, which holds rallies or fire drills in front of institutions every Friday, and other actions of civil disobedience, to vindicate the harmful effects of climate change. Fonda’s protests have even led to her arrest in the past.

This activity is not the only one that Jane does despite her age and health problems. She just played a starring role in the movie 80 for Bradyproduced by the footballer Tom Bradybased on a true story of four older women who take a fun trip to see the sports star.

Fonda has shared the set on this occasion with the actresses Sally Field, Rita Moreno y Lily Tomlinprecisely with whom he has already filmed seven seasons of the fun and successful Netflix comedy Grace and Frankie.
