"I woke up on that operating table so flooded with emotions and gratitude for my life and the gift of consciousness"
In honor of Father’s Day, Moshe Kasher revealed he was diagnosed with tonsil cancer. The comedian and writer shared a series of slides of Instagram detailing his experience, including a recent surgery.
Kasher explained that he discovered the cancer while working on the Judd Apatow–Glen Powell project The Comeback King in Savannah three months earlier. “I found a bump on my tonsil,” he wrote. “It was cancer, which did not rule so hard.”
Last week, Kasher underwent surgery at Cedars Sinai, which involved “a Jewish robot” yanking “my jaw open for five hours.” “This has been the most terrifying and consciousness consuming experience of my life,” he wrote. “My life has been terror, meditation, tears, and medical planning (oh and 12 hour days on set pitching jokes).”
