Billy Connolly battling cancer, Parkinson's
I just read this on USA Today:
Comedian and actor Billy Connolly has undergone surgery for prostate cancer, his rep tells the BBC. The Scottish-born star, 70, had "minor surgery" after being diagnosed "with the very early stages of prostate cancer." The rep added, "In addition, Billy has been assessed as having the initial symptoms of Parkinson's disease, for which he is receiving the appropriate treatment." Connolly, who plays a dwarf warrior in The Hobbit film series, is not expected to slow down. According to the report, he will start filming a TV series in the near future, as well as undertake an extensive theatrical tour of New Zealand next year. |

I'm sorry to hear that Billy is dealing with these illnesses but I'm glad he's not letting them slow him down!
