A health battle inspired Seinfeld alum Michael Richards to write his upcoming memoir, Entrances and Exits. The actor, 74, known for playing Kramer on the sitcom, details being diagnosed with stage 1 prostate cancer in 2018 in his new book, which hits bookshelves on Tuesday, June 4. I thought, well, this is my time. Im ready to go, Richards told People in an interview published on Thursday, May 23. Richards went on to note that his and his wife Beth Skipps son, Antonio, inspired him to fight back against the illness. But then my son came to mind just a few seconds later, and I heard myself saying, Ive got a 9-year-old and Id like to be around for him, he shared. Is there any way I can get a little more life going? (Richards also shares daughter Sophia with his ex-wife, Cathleen Lyons.)

According to Richards, his cancer had to be contained quickly, resulting in him undergoing surgery to remove his entire prostate. I had to go for the full surgery, he explained. If I hadnt, I probably would have been dead in about eight months.
