Loved by fans for many years, it was devastating to find out that Michael Douglas is now suffering from stage four throat cancer. During the New York red carper premier of Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, Michael was said to be keeping silent although those close to him have been saying that he is feeling fearful and is having difficulty speaking. Well, who wouldn’t be? This is cancer we’re talking about here and moreover at fourth stage. As someone who is having a great career and living with a beautiful wife like Catherine Zeta-Jones, and two kids Dylan and Cary, the news of cancer will definitely take a toll on him.
Michael was seen dodging the press and paparazzi, not stopping to pose for many photos. Most likely to avoid showing the press how is his actual condition.
According to Popeater, friends of Michael said that his family is trying to be as optimistic as possible but realistic at the same time. Fourth stage cancer is not something to be taken lightly and they all recognise that. So basically, on top of radiation and chemotherapy, Michael is living life to the fullest and taking nothing for granted.
