Moshe Kasher<\/strong> is leaning on humor amid his cancer battle.<\/p>\n

The comedian revealed he was diagnosed with tonsil cancer three months ago after he discovered a bump in his throat while working with Judd Apatow<\/strong> and Glen Powell<\/strong> on their movie The Comeback King<\/em> in Georgia.<\/p>\n

As a result, Kasher recently underwent surgery to remove the mass as part of his treatment<\/p>\n

“Two days ago, a Jewish surgery robot at Cedars Sinai yanked my jaw open for five hours and cut it out,” he quipped in a June 21 Instagram post, “and then slit my throat and disected my neck leaving me with a hardcore neck scar which will make people reluctant to street fight me.”<\/p>\n

But on a serious note, the 46-year-old called the medical ordeal “the most terrifying and consciousness consuming experience of my life.”<\/p>\n

“My life has been terror, meditation, tears and medical planning,” he continued. “I’m in pain and in the middle of a very difficult process. It’s going to be a long summer.”<\/p>\n

That’s why the actor, who most recently appeared on the second season of The Pitt<\/em> as American Sign Language interpreter Samuel Jacob, is keeping his spirits up. As he put it, “The good news is the cancer I have has an incredibly high cure rate.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
