‘Big Bang Theory’ star Kate Micucci is cancer-free after surgery: ‘Very lucky’
"The Big Bang Theory" actress Kate Micucci provided a health update after she was recently diagnosed with lung cancer.
"I have great news, which is that I am cancer-free! The surgery last week went great," Micucci, 43, revealed in a TikTok post. "All the reports came back that it worked, I don’t need to do any other treatment."
"So big thank you to all my doctors and nurses and everyone who took just, really great care of me. And thanks to figuring it out early because I am very, very lucky and I know that."
Micucci added that she felt "really good today" and remains "truly grateful" for the overwhelming support.
"I’m just glad I can report some good news to you," she said.
The New Jersey native noted what she is looking forward to during the holiday season as she recovers.
"I’m excited to hang with my little boy for Christmas."
Her health update ended with a sweet video of her son running toward his mother as he kissed her.
In 2017, Micucci married musician Jake Sinclair. The couple share a son who was born in 2020.
The "Raising Hope" actress’ comments come after she previously explained that she was recovering after undergoing lung surgery to treat the disease earlier this month.

While Micucci referred to her initial video as a "SickTok," the actress admitted she found her diagnosis to be bizarre, as she lives a healthy lifestyle. She was seen lying in a hospital bed in her social media video.
"They caught it really early. It's pretty weird because I've never smoked a cigarette in my life," Micucci said.
