Dan Bongino gave a hopeful Christmas update about his battle with cancer, saying he believes he will come out “A-OK” after a final chemotherapy treatment next week.
The conservative commentator and radio show host said he hopes to have his last treatment on Tuesday. He revealed earlier this year he was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma, a blood cancer that can start from almost anywhere in the body, after doctors found a “very scary” tumor in his neck.
“It’s been tough. I’m tired. The chemo’s rough. You got to get through it with a bit of a sense of humor though,” Bongino said Friday on Fox & Friends, jokingly adding that he gave chemotherapy zero stars on Amazon.
Bongino, 46, thanked viewers for their support.
“I get your emails, I read all of your social media posts, and, really, it’s been heartwarming,” Bongino said. “I will be A-OK though. I promise you. My prognosis is really good.”
Bongino, who is a former Secret Service agent, also sent best wishes to fellow conservative radio show host Rush Limbaugh, who has been fighting Stage 4 cancer this year. Limbaugh delivered an emotional signoff earlier this week in his final show of the year, wishing for a better 2021.
“God bless him and his struggle too, and everyone out there struggling with this awful disease,” Bongino said.
