Many friends and fellow celebrities, such as Nigella Lawson, Dawn French, and Melissa McCarthy, publicly sent her messages of love and support during her treatment.

Szubanski publicly revealed her diagnosis in May after a breast screening incident, and she shaved her head in anticipation of hair loss due to her treatment.

She is currently undergoing treatment for her cancer, sharing updates from her hospital bed and acknowledging the physical challenges of chemotherapy.

Szubanski shared heartfelt videos from her hospital bed on Instagram, thanking a young fan, Annabella Willis from Adelaide, for her supportive impression of her character Sharon Strzelecki, which cheered her during chemotherapy.

Her family, including Annabella's mother Rachel, was moved by the fan’s gesture and the family's emotional response to Szubanski seeing their daughter’s impression.

Magda Szubanski, the beloved Australian actress known for her role in Kath & Kim, has been diagnosed with stage four mantle cell lymphoma, a rare and aggressive blood cancer, which was discovered incidentally during a breast screening in May.

Despite her health battle, Szubanski received widespread support from the Australian public, and in August, she was inducted into the Logies Hall of Fame, where she delivered an emotional taped speech celebrating her 40-year career and expressing gratitude for the love and support she has received.

Szubanski has openly acknowledged that chemotherapy is physically taxing but has expressed deep gratitude for the support, which gives her strength to continue fighting.

Her social media posts and the public’s response have highlighted her status as a beloved national figure, with widespread messages of encouragement.

Although she was not present at the Logies ceremony, Szubanski delivered a humorous taped speech, clarifying that her award was for her career, not her health.
