In a long post, Timpf told the world that she was diagnosed with stage zero breast cancer.

“Last week, I welcomed my first child into the world. About fifteen hours before I went into labor, I was diagnosed with breast cancer,” Timpf wrote.

“Now, before you worry, my doctor says it’s Stage 0 and is confident that it almost certainly hasn’t spread.

“Or, as I’ve explained to the few people I’ve managed to tell about it so far: Don’t freak out. It’s just, like, a LITTLE bit of cancer.”

She ended her announcement by saying that she feels “lucky” to have caught the disease so early and to be a mother to her newborn son.

Timpf, who stars on the Fox News show Gutfeld and wrote the book I Used to Like You Until, is answering her followers’ questions on Instagram regarding her diagnosis and treatment plans.

“Thank you so much for all of the support; it’s meant so much to me,” Timpf began her video.

“This is obviously a really crazy, difficult time, and I really do appreciate it. But I wanted to address a few things because I’ve also been really overwhelmed with medical advice.”

The comedian went on to address commenters’ thoughts on her “extreme” plans to get a double mastectomy.

“Trust me, there’s no one for whom that seems more extreme than me,” she said in the video.

Who is Kat Timpf’s husband?
Timpf said she doesn’t take the operation “lightly” but is following the advice of medical professionals around her.

“I find it devastating, but I am very grateful to have access to the opinions of many brilliant minds when it comes to breast cancer,” she said.

“I have been very lucky to have a team that is very knowledgeable on this and the focus of all these conversations is what’s the best thing to do to keep me alive so I’m around for my son for a long time.

“Every case of breast cancer is very different. There are a lot of details of mine that I haven’t shared.”

The author asked her followers to “trust” that she is making the right choice for herself and everyone else in her life.

“I just want to say trust that I’m making the best decision for me and my family,” she said.

Kat Timpf’s full statement

An Unconventional Birth Announcement

Last week, I welcomed my first child into the world. About fifteen hours before I went into labor, I was diagnosed with breast cancer.

Now, before you worry, my doctor says it’s Stage 0 and is confident that it almost certainly hasn’t spread.  Or, as I’ve explained to the few people I’ve managed to tell about it so far: Don’t freak out. It’s just, like, a LITTLE bit of cancer. 

Still, it was not a chill day. I mean, to say the least! I woke up more-than-a-week-past-due pregnant, completely consumed by doing everything I could to get the baby out. By the middle of the afternoon, I was waddling around from appointment to appointment, talking about how to get my cancer out. I sat and listened as they told me that the best course of action would likely be a double mastectomy as soon as possible. I asked all the questions I could, including if I could get a copy of my tumor ultrasound to put on the fridge next to the ultrasound of my baby. Finally, by the middle of the night, I was crawling around on the floor of my apartment in spontaneous labor, before heading to the hospital to meet my baby, whom I’d learn at the time of birth was a son.

The good news? People who work at hospitals make excellent audiences for dark humor — and, as someone whose first book was about the power of jokes to get through traumatic situations, there was really no better place for me to be. Just minutes after my boy was born, I was talking with the nurses about what a birth announcement in my situation might look like.

Should I go with “Mom and baby are doing well, except maybe for mom’s cancer, and then maybe the baby after breastfeeding is stunted by her double mastectomy,” and then shut off my phone for a week?

Anyway! These next three months of maternity leave are going to look a lot different than I’d anticipated, and I’m still getting used to my new reality. Still, as I navigate new motherhood (and new cancer) I’m learning to celebrate everything I can. I’m lucky that we found the cancer so early; I’m lucky to be my son’s mom. I mean, I know I’m biased, but the little dude absolutely rules — and not just because he might have saved my life.

Thank you all for your support, laughter, and love as I embrace this wildly unexpected chapter. Here’s to resilience, to miracles in the midst of chaos, and to finding humor and hope even on the toughest days.
