The Jurassic Park star shared the good news about his treatment with Australia's 7News network. "I've been living with a particular type of lymphoma for about five years, and I was on chemotherapy and the pretty miserable business, but it was keeping me alive." At one point, after the chemotherapy stopped working, he shared, "I was at a loss, and it looked like I was on the way out, which wasn't ideal obviously." But after undergoing a cutting-edge treatment, Neill is now free of cancer.
