Dwyane Wade disclosed on his podcast that he had 40% of his kidney removed due to a cancerous tumor discovered during a routine checkup after he turned 40. The alarming diagnosis arose after he reported issues with urination and cramping. Wade described the surgery and recovery as incredibly challenging and marked a low point in his life as it exposed vulnerability to his family. Fortunately, he is now cancer-free, emphasizing the importance of comprehensive health checks, especially in light of his family's history of cancer.
"I turned 40 and went in and said, 'Doc, I want to know everything about my body head to toe.'"
"That moment was probably the weakest point I've ever felt in my life."
