Dipika's in pain but stable: Shoaib shares update on her 14-hour liver tumour surgery
India, June 5 -- Actor Shoaib Ibrahim has shared an update about his wife, actor Dipika Kakar's health. Shoaib confirmed that she underwent a 14-hour surgery for stage 2 liver cancer on Tuesday, June 3.
Taking to Instagram, Shoaib wrote, "Hi everyone, Sorry I couldn't update you last night, it was a long surgery. She was in OT for 14 hours. But Alhamdulillah, everything went well. Dipika is currently in the ICU. She's experiencing some pain, but her condition is stable, and she's doing okay."
He also thanked everyone "from the bottom of my heart for your love, prayers, and support". He added, "It truly means a lot. I will update you all once she's out of the ICU. Thank you once again. Keep praying for her."
Last month, Shoaib had posted a vlog where he shared that earlier in May, Dipika felt a pain in her stomach which they initially thought was due to acidity. When the pain didn't go away, they did some tests and a CT scan showed that Dipika has a tumour in the left lobe of her liver.
On May 28, Dipika revealed that the tumour is cancerous. "As you all are aware, the last few weeks have been quite difficult for us... walking into the hospital for a pain in the upper area of my stomach... and then finding out it's a tennis ball-sized tumor in the liver and then finding out that the tumor is stage 2 malignant (cancerous). It has been one of the most difficult times we've seen and experienced," she had said.
