Dave previously explained that his cancer battle has been a fast and furious one, as he learned about the development in his lymph nodes just five weeks prior to sharing the news publicly.
“In that time, I’ve had three surgeries, I’ve had chemo, I’ve lost a little bit of hair,” he told Today‘s Hoda Kotb on Nov. 13. “I kind of look like a little baby bird now, but it has been a roller coaster ride for sure.”
The 65-year-old explained that he was dealing with “a very aggressive type of lymphoma,” and because it happened so quickly, he began treatments for chemotherapy right away.
For now, he’s focusing on the good news, which is that the cancer has not spread.
