Jeff Bridges: 'COVID makes my cancer look like a piece of cake'
As if his battle with cancer were not enough, 71-year-old Jeff Bridges is still recovering from COVID, which he has contracted in the meantime. However, despite all the health problems, Bridges managed to walk his daughter down the aisle.
Jeff Bridges has decided from the very beginning of his health problems to keep his fans up to date with everything, and the best and easiest way to do that is through a personal blog he writes. It was there that he revealed that he had recently contracted the coronavirus, as well as that he had to receive oxygen while walking.
But all the problems disappeared when the day he was looking forward to arrived - the wedding of his youngest daughter Haley, whom he walked down the aisle and then danced with her.
"I had a goal—walking my daughter Hayley down the aisle. She was getting married to a wonderful guy, Justin Shane. Thanks to Zach and my terrific medical team, I was able to, not only walk Hay down the aisle but do the father/bride dance with her without oxygen" revealed 71-year-old Jeff Bridges, who also uploaded a video of the dance, on Ray Charles song 'Ain't That Love', on his blog.
In a long blog, he also stated that his cancer, after months of treatment, was finally in remission, as well as that the malignant mass had decreased to the size of a pill. He also admitted that the fight against cancer was a ‘piece of cake’ in comparison to the coronavirus, which he contracted back in January before he had a chance to get vaccinated.
"Covid kicked my ass pretty good, but I'm double vaccinated and feeling much better now." the actor said.
