Bachelor in Paradise alum, Joe Amabile, is revealing the physical reality of undergoing brain surgery — and fellow cancer survivor Busy Philipps is showing her support.
Posting via his Instagram on Wednesday, September 9, Joe, 40, shared several close-up photos of his brain surgery staples and healing scar in a carousel of images.
“I feel like my scar is coming along pretty nicely,” he captioned the image.
Philipps, 47, commented on the post to share her support after undergoing her own brain surgery in February after doctors found a tumor.
Busy Philipps Reached Out to Joe Amabile Amid Diagnosis: ‘Brain Tumor Brother’
“Omg it looks so good???(lol i won’t text you mine from when it got infected.),” the Dawson’s Creek alum wrote. In response, Joe joked, “Yeah, no need to ?”
In July, Joe shared via Instagram that doctors had found “a blueberry size lesion” on his brain which appeared to be a tumor during an MRI scan.
The Bachelorette alum underwent brain surgery last month to get the lesion removed and tested. On August 6, Joe revealed that doctors “got it all” after operating on his brain. He was later diagnosed with “an astrocytoma, but it’s very low grade.” (Astrocytoma is a type of tumor found on the brain or spinal cord that starts in cells called astrocytes and may result in headaches, seizures, nausea or changes in mood or behavior, according to the Mayo Clinic.)

“I got my six-month scan MRI and … no sign of tumor,” Philipps shared on Tuesday, September 8 via an Instagram video.
The actress revealed in August that she had been diagnosed with a grade 2 oligodendroglioma, a rare slow-growing tumor.
During an interview with People, Philipps said that she was recovering at the time. “I’m grateful that I’m alive,” she told the magazine, which reported that she showed no obvious symptoms ahead of her diagnosis.

Last month, Philipps said that she reached out to Joe after being alerted to his health journey, which bore many similarities to her own.
“If you’ve been following Joe Amabile … from The Bachelor, he’s been documenting in real time,” Philipps said via her Instagram Story on August 26. “I reached out to him because several of my friends sent me his original post. We have almost the exact same story — prenuvo scan, found this lesion in our brains, almost the exact same kind of tumor. His is slightly different than mine, we know now. I introduced him to my doctors.”
She continued, “He’s like my brain tumor brother. It’s so weird. But he’s been documenting it in real time. His recovery, he’s just a couple weeks out now. He’s going to run the marathon. He’s doing great. Love you Joe.”
