Youtube star Hank Green announces cancer diagnosis in candid video

The 43-year-old explained in the clip titled 'So, I've got cancer,' that he has been diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma, which, according to the NHS, is 'an uncommon cancer that develops in the lymphatic system'.

Hank revealed he went to get checked after noticing that his lymph nodes were bigger than usual, which prompted being sent for an ultrasound. 'Good news, bad news,' Hank explained, talking about the results of his biopsy, saying that the cancer he has is 'one of the most treatable'.Hank went on to speak more about his diagnosis, before saying: 'I'm going to talk about this in a weird way now, and I don't want you to think that I'm not processing this in a deeper, more emotional way, or with regards to my personal life.

'It's just that I don't really want to do that here right now, because it's very heavy to talk about the diagnosis from those perspectives.'But I do feel comfortable and ready to talk publicly about it in terms of my work, whatever that is, which is important.' Going on to talk about the 'practicalities', Hank admitted that 'the call of just lay in bed and feel bad is very strong.'
