"Good news and bad news. One, it's cancer", he said in a video on his channel Vlogbrothers. "Good news, it's something called Hodgkin's lymphoma," he added. "It's one of the most treatable cancers. It responds very well to treatment."

Hank Green started his channel back in 2007 with his older brother, award-winning novelist John Green of "The Fault in Our Stars" and "Looking for Alaska" fame.
