According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/my.clevelandclinic.org\/health\/diseases\/embryonal-carcinoma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cleveland Clinic<\/a>, it is a \u201crare form of testicular cancer. It\u2019s a type of tumor that consists of abnormal germ cells \u2014 the cells that eventually mature into sperm. Common treatments include surgery to remove the tumor and chemotherapy. Although it\u2019s an aggressive cancer, the prognosis is good if you receive treatment before the cancer has spread.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the diagnosis, he later underwent a procedure called a retroperitoneal lymph node dissection, which removed lymph nodes to ensure the cancer would not spread. He unfortunately had to undergo chemotherapy in July, as some of the lymph nodes were found to have the cancer in them. He did two cycles of chemotherapy. He finally was able to ring the bell at the end of July to signify the end of his treatment.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium_large caption_belowImage credit_onImage mobile-image-full-width\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/will-reeve-cancer3.jpg\" class=\"pss-trigger\" role=\"button\" data-pss-trigger=\"1\" aria-controls=\"pss-modal\" aria-label=\"Open gallery of 3 images.\" title=\"Open gallery of 3 images.\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"788\" height=\"525\" src=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/will-reeve-cancer3-788x525.jpg\" alt=\"Will Reeve stock image to announce his cancer diagnosis\" class=\"wp-image-2293662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/will-reeve-cancer3-788x525.jpg 788w, https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/will-reeve-cancer3-428x285.jpg 428w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 430px) 100px, 100vw\"\/><span class=\"pss-trigger__badge pss-trigger__badge--top-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\">3<\/span><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI want folks to know that this is a thing that can happen.

I was experiencing life as each of my parents at the same time. Because I was a cancer patient at Memorial Sloan Kettering, I was getting a firsthand experience at what my mother went through. Simultaneously, I was learning more about what it was like to be my dad in the final nine years of his life, where he had my mom and our family taking care of him. And there I was with my wife, who, since the day I met her, has reminded me in so many ways of my mom, now playing the role of wife and caregiver.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"categories single-categories\">Posted To:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/tags\/christopher-reeve\/\" rel=\"tag noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Christopher Reeve<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/tags\/will-reeve\/\" rel=\"tag noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Will Reeve<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/2026\/09\/29\/abc-news-will-reeve-34-diagnosed-with-rare-testicular-cancer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Credit: Getty Images ABC News\u2019 correspondent Will Reeve has revealed a testicular cancer diagnosis.
