Barton Cowperthwaite, who starred in Netflix’s 2020 ballet drama “Tiny Pretty Things,” has been diagnosed with brain cancer.

Cowperthwaite wrote about the update to his health in an Instagram post on Friday, saying he was diagnosed with “at least stage 2 Glioma,” and that “it is a fairly decent sized brain tumor.” “The only course of treatment for something like this is brain surgery. Docs so far have been confident that they’ll be able to remove most of the tumor, and that after a successful operation, and some rehab, I will be operating like my self,” he wrote.

“I’ll do my best to be open about the journey on here,” he wrote, adding, “I am planning on fully bouncing back to be better than my former glory!” His post was accompanied by a photo of himself in a hospital gown, and a couple of photos showing his brain scans. On Saturday, Cowperthwaite said in a video posted to his Instagram that the “lemon sized” brain tumor was discovered on a scan he underwent after suffering “several seizures” throughout the last eight weeks.
