Mindy Cohn Reveals Second Cancer Battle

Her post points to a short recovery before a return to work.

Overview

  • Cohn, in an Instagram post Sunday, said she has been fighting cancer again and shared a thumbs-up photo from a hospital bed.
  • She thanked Providence Saint John’s Hospital in Santa Monica, naming nurses Finja, Patty and Courtney, and calling oncology surgeon Dr. Anton Bilchik her hero.
  • She wrote that she is recouping for another couple of weeks before her next adventure, signaling she expects to resume professional plans soon.
  • Cohn did not disclose the type of cancer or other medical details, and outlets reported no further specifics beyond her note of gratitude and recovery timeline.
  • This is her second cancer fight after a 2012 breast cancer diagnosis that led to radiation, chemotherapy and a double mastectomy before remission in 2017, a history that drew wide support from peers including Sarah Paulson, Rhea Seehorn, Octavia Spencer, Helen Hunt and Rosie O’Donnell.
