Tom has been diagnosed with cancer.
Hi everyone,
By now many people have probably heard that Tom was diagnosed with cancer last week.
For many weeks, his right testicle was painfully swollen. He looked at it and realized that this wasn't normal... this was something new. He went for exploratory surgery and his testicle (the swollen one) was removed once they determined it was cancerous.
Testicular cancer is one of the most curable forms of the disease.
Tom is having another operation today to make sure they got all of the cancer.
Tom is in good spirits. In fact, he is filming the whole experience for an up-coming episode of the show.
It'll be called "The Cancer Special".
Tom is also starting a fund to raise money for cancer research. He's hoping to raise ten thousand dollars.
If you wish, donations can be sent to the following address:
Tom Green’s Nuts Cancer Fund
c/o California Community Fund
445 S. Figueroa St., Suite #3400
Los Angeles, CA, USA
90071
You can also check out Entertainment Tonight on Tuesday to see their interview with Tom at the hospital.
Thanks for all you love and support. We will try to keep you posted as we get more news.
