‘All My Children’ and Hallmark actor Colin Egglesfield has cancer for a third time

the Hallmark star wrote on Instagram earlier this week. “The beginning to this year hasn’t been the easiest, but in the spirit of what I said in my interview, this is another opportunity to decide who I choose to be in the face of uncertainty and challenges in my most recent cancer diagnosis.”Luckily, Egglesfield said the doctors caught his prostate cancer early and urged men to be cautious, stating, “Fellas, be sure to get your PSA checked regularly.

It saved my life!”The “All My Children” alum explained his course of treatment with followers. “[After] doing a lot of research and talking to quite a few health care professionals, I elected to be proactive and have surgery.

I’m so grateful for the amazing support and care I’ve received over the past few months from @cityofhopephx, Dr. Gellhaus and all the nurses, other doctors, and staff that have been instrumental in supporting me through this scary time,” he explained.Egglesfield hopes that being transparent about his health struggle will encourage others who are going through similar situations.“Hopefully this is a reminder to everyone that you’re not alone with whatever you’re facing and that it’s important to advocate for yourself and your health which includes checkups, seeking information and asking for help when you need it!” he penned. “And thank you to everyone else who has supported me and extended your well wishes!”“I feel it and each day I’m getting healthier and stronger.

I’m still a bit sore but I’m making progress and am determined to come back stronger and healthier than ever especially with the help of my sexy walker :).”Egglesfield concluded: “It all starts with a decision to commit to what you decide to be with whatever you’re facing.
