🍁 Famous celebrities and VHL! :)
“Famous Individuals with Von Hippel-Lindau Disease” www.diseasemaps.org
I couldn’t find anything in an online search that included the celebrities identified in the above article with “VHL”. However, Cameron Mathison is the only figure that I thought may possibly have VHL just because he describes his renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer) as slow growing and was been around 10 years (without spreading). Their entire list:
Ben Stiller-American actor, comedian, and filmmaker
Alan Thicke-Canadian actor and television personality
Kelly Clarkson- Grammy Award-winning singer and television personality (isn’t VHL herself, but the site says that) … Clarkson's mother, Jeanne Taylor, was diagnosed with VHL disease and sadly passed away from complications related to the condition…”
Cameron Mathison- Canadian-American actor and television host “has been living with VHL disease since his early twenties…”

- Initially, I found “You’re Not Alone: Famous People With Kidney Cancer” (Dolph Lundgren, Raymond Burr, Maia Shibutani, Ronnie Hillman, and Cameron Mathison...) www.healthcentral.com
- Also noticed titles like "Famous people with Pheochromacytoma" and "Addison's Disease" or "Addison’s disease" (adrenal insufficiency)
