Michael’s wife Jennifer Carpenter had this to say about his current battle with cancer. She’s basically just reassuring us what we’ve heard and read before, which is great news!
“He’s great. Very lucky [he] caught it early – it’s 98 percent curable, so it’s basically choosing the treatment and sticking with it.”
“After two rounds of treatment, he was in complete remission. He’s just finishing up to make sure it stays that way. He wanted to let everybody know and he’s been receiving so much support and good thoughts. That’s been the kick that he needed to just finish it up.”
“It’s always felt like an opportunity to get closer and I’m just so impressed with him and anyone who’s had to go through it,” she said, becoming visibly emotional. “Every second’s special with him, it sounds corny but it’s true. I’m very lucky.”

Michael and Jennifer,
I love Dexter!!!!!
My thoughts are with you….I was diagnosed w/ cancer at 34, I am now 60 and great! Cancer is a big roller coaster emotionally, but ahhh what a learning experience. I am so wise now……….chuckle
I cannot wait for the next season.
Rest and enjoy yourselves.

This had me in tears! I’m so glad that Michael and Jennifer have one another and that this has made them stronger! Her words give comfort to us fans and it’s nice that they were thinking of us. God bless them both!

Michael, My husband and I really enjoy your show. I just wantd to share that in September 2009 I completed chemo therapy for Non-hodgkins Lymphoma. It is a challening experience, but as of this date I am in remission. I wish you the best and know you will come thru it.
