<p>Adding further, he said, "news seems to be all over the news at the moment, and it's sort of, 'Cancer! Cancer! Cancer!

Sam Neill assures fans that he's 'alive and well' after revealing his cancer diagnosis

<p>Veteran New Zealand actor Sam Neill, best known for Steven Spielberg's 1993 blockbuster Jurassic Park, has revealed that he is undergoing treatment for stage-three blood cancer. In his upcoming memoir<em> Did I Ever Tell You This?</em>, which comes out on Tuesday, March 21, Neill says that he began writing about his daily life to keep busy even as he has been treated. In the book's very first chapter, he writes (quoted by The Guardian) in his usual casual way to state serious things, “The thing is, I’m crook. Possibly dying. I may have to speed this up.” In Australian and New Zealand slang, 'crook' means 'ill' or 'sick'.</p>

<p>While speaking to The Guardian, Neill talked about the origin of his book. He said, “I found myself with nothing to do. And I’m used to working. I love working. I love going to work. I love being with people every day and enjoying human company and friendship and all these things. And suddenly I was deprived of that. And I thought, ‘What am I going to do?’</p>

<p>He added that he had never intended to write a book, but as he continued to write, he realised that it was giving him a reason to live. He would go to bed thinking about what to write the next day, as it would entertain him. Writing for him was like a lifesaver for him during difficult times.</p>
