Chadwick Boseman Visited Terminally Ill Children While Secretly Fighting Cancer

On Friday night, Chadwick Boseman’s family posted a statement to the actor’s Instagram page, revealing that he’d succumbed to stage 4 colon cancer. Many were stunned by the announcement, especially since Boseman had never publicly revealed his diagnosis, which he received in 2016. In 2018, the “Black Panther” star visited with terminally ill children, many with cancer, at a St. Judes hospital in Tennessee. All the while, Boseman was secretly fighting cancer himself.
