"They caught it really early. It's pretty weird because I've never smoked a cigarette in my life. So, you know, it was a surprise. But also I guess, also, it happens and so the🐲 greatest news is they caught it early, they got it o﷽ut, I’m all good,'' added Micucci.
The 43-year-old actress also said, “It’s been a little bit of a tr𒐪ip and [I’ll] probably be moving slow for a few weeks but then I’ll be back at it'' and added that she cꦉan’t wait to get back to painting.

On how she found out about her can🎐cer, Micucci shared, "I had one thing in my bloodwork that came back really high ... It was HCRP ... not sure what that is exactly but I guess it means🔯 there is inflammation somewhere''.
"So I went to a preventative doc who did a few scans. He scanned my heart and that'💞s where the spot in my lung was noticed,'' she explained.
