Michael Douglas: ‘Life is Not All Ha-ha-ha’

Michael Douglas told Parade magazine he had no choice but to go public with his cancer.

"When you are a celebrity, nothing remains secret for very long. If it helps bring attention, then that is a major upside to this whole thing," the 'Wall Street' actor told the publication. "Millions of families are going through the same thing my family and I are now going through. If I can bring any relief or encouragement, that's the good news."

Douglas said despite the trials that have come his way, he remains positive. "Life is not all ha-ha-ha. But I'm in good spirits. I'm an optimistic guy. Nothing has deterred me from my belief that I am going to beat this. My doctors' prognosis is for a full recovery. I have no reason to doubt them."
