Marco Zunino reveals that he has cancer
The renowned film, theater and television actor Marco Zunino recently revealed that he was diagnosed with bladder cancer, a challenge he has bravely faced for five months. The popular ‘Cosito’ shared how he has managed to combine his artistic career with medical treatment, a process that, according to him, has allowed him to reflect and strengthen his spirit.
In an interview for the Día D program, Zunino recalled the moment he received the news, the same day he had a dress rehearsal for ‘Nubeluz: El reencuentro’. With serenity, he related: “I picked up the biopsy, and the doctor told me, ‘it’s positive, it’s cancer.’ I felt chills and said, ‘ok, what do I have to do?'” Although the emotional impact was inevitable, the actor stressed the importance of facing the situation and allowing himself to express his emotions: “I’m not going to lie, I cried, tears came out.”
The actor stressed that his diagnosis was possible thanks to a preventive checkup that he decided to perform, inspired by his colleague Christian Thorsen, who also faced a similar situation. Examinations revealed stage I cancer, allowing for timely intervention. After undergoing surgery to remove the tumor, he is currently undergoing immunotherapy treatment, which he described as as effective as chemotherapy.
