From the Daily Mail: John Reardon is known to most fans as the handsome leading man in many a Hallmark holiday romance, but on Christmas eve, the Canadian actor opened up about his life threatening healthcare struggle.
In a joint statement with his wife Meghan Ory, 42, Reardon, 49, disclosed he had undergone treatment for tonsil cancer.
Looking handsome in a black wool coat, the Hudson and Rex star explained that Monday ‘was my first night out after my recovery from tonsil cancer.’
According to the Mayo Clinic, tonsil cancer begins in the tonsils, which are part of the immune system. It is considered a kind of throat cancer and happens in the part of the throat that’s behind the mouth, called the oropharynx.
In an Instagram post on Christmas Eve, Reardon shared two photos, and shared his story. He wrote:
Last night was my first night out after my recovery from tonsil cancer. Has been a long road between these two pictures and the difference is from the love and support I received from my people in my life.
My amazing partner @officialmeghanory for taking on our whole world to help me get better. My brave kids who inspired me. My Dad who took me for a walk everyday even when it was hard for me to get out of bed – and I’m sure hard for him to see his son in pain. My Mom @ocean__cottage who made me soups and ginger honey tea and green juices so I could get calories into my body.
My sister and brother @dr_laura_reardon @marcreardon81 who helped with the kids and the challenges of life when I couldn’t. All my in-laws, who are not just in-laws they are family, who brought food and cookies and talked through challenges with us.
Our nanny, our neighbors and everyone who sent food or love and support or messages and kind words and also all the amazing doctors, nurses, technicians, hospital workers, psychologists you are all my heroes and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Kindness is an under appreciated quality in people. We should never under value it. Celebrate it and distribute it as much as possible. It is free and life changing. Happy Holidays 🫶🏻
