Bryant Gumbel lung cancer

[d107]

Bryant Gumbel has revealed that he's had surgery for lung cancer.

Gumbel dropped the bombshell while co-hosting "Live With Regis and Kelly" when Kelly Ripa tried to get him to dance and he told her he wasn't up to it.

Gumbel says "they opened up my chest, they took a malignant tumor and they took part of my lung and some other goodies."

He says "the pathology on most of the stuff came back benign, but enough aggressive cells escaped the tumor that it warranted some treatment." He says "it's done now."

He says he's OK "for the time being" and is hoping to return to his golf game.

Hope he will be fine. That is one nasty thing to get!
