I had to cancel all my overseas filming work.Everything was canceled.The doctors told me it wasmalignant tissuein the bile duct. They said it was stage 3, requiring urgent surgery. Twenty-six areas of my body were involved. Recovery would take over a year. I didn’t tell anyone. I believed I could fight it. I had tofollow upwith the doctors. There’s no malignant tissue now, but I have tomonitormy blood system. Currently, I’m doing physical therapy. The most important thing is my mindset. I draw strength from my children, family, friends, and crew. We have to stand strong and come back. No one expected this to happen here. It was a shock. I calmed myself, fought it, kept a positive mindset, trusted the medical team, and also ordained as a monk.
