'LazyTown' actor Stefan Karl Stefansson thought he had beaten cancer but then it returned
'LazyTown' actor Stefan Karl Stefansson, who died on Tuesday at 43, had initially thought that he has been cured of the perilous disease that he was diagnosed with. Best known for his role as Robbie Rotten in 'LazyTown', the actor was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2016, however, it was apparently removed surgically.
Stefansson would often post on social media in order to keep his fans and followers updated about his health. He had posted on the GoFundMe page following his surgery, "I'm free of any cancer metastases right now after undergoing a very successful liver surgery in June this year performed by one of the best liver surgery teams in the world, Kristin Huld Haraldsdottir and Sigurdur Blöndal at the Icelandic University Hospital." However, he also mentioned that he wasn't entirely free of the danger, "but I'm free of the metastases."
