‘I have perspective after cancer’

Michael Douglas has said surviving cancer has made him focus more on the future.

The Fatal Attraction star announced that he had been diagnosed with the disease in 2010 and was treated with radiation and chemotherapy for five months.

The 73-year-old, who is married to Welsh actress Catherine Zeta-jones, said the expe- rience has made him focus more on his immediate future.

He said: “As a cancer survivor and somebody at this part in his career, you look pretty specifically as to how you want to conduct the next year of your life. I choose when I want to work, when I want to spend time with my family, when I want to play golf. It’s all in perspective.” 0 Hollywood star Michael Douglas
