Bridges also posted a longer message on his website, where he’ll be giving updates on his treatment and how he’s feeling.

\"This cancer thing is bringing on feelings of preciousness, & gratitude & good old fashioned love, & lots of it, big time,\" he writes. \"I'm feeling so much of it comin' my way, & man, I appreciate it.\"

Bridges adds, \"It's contagious, all this love, like some kind of positive virus.\"

Lymphoma is cancer of the body's lymphatic system, which helps fight germs according to the Mayo Clinic. The organization added that treatment for the disease varies, but may involve chemotherapy, immunotherapy medications, radiation therapy, a bone marrow transplant or some combination thereof.

The Oscar winner is staying positive and assured his fans, \"Although it is a serious disease, I feel fortunate that I have a great team of doctors and the prognosis is good.\"
