(WJW) – FOX 8 News anchor Wayne Dawson is cancer-free!

In a social media update on Thursday, Dawson posted a picture of his excitement for the news on both Instagram and Facebook

“Praising God, after a successful radiology scan showing no cancer,” Dawson said on Facebook.

Wayne posted his first post-surgery update on April 28 to his Instagram page saying, “I underwent a very long but successful 9-hour surgery at the Cleveland Clinic but God was in the operating room guiding the hands of those working on his child,” Dawson wrote alongside a photo of many get well cards and flowers that have been sent to him.

In May, Dawson gave another update to FOX 8 News viewers saying, “The crazy thing is my surgeon said this type of cancer happens in people who chew tobacco, or heavy smokers, or heavy drinkers and I’m none of those. But I found something in my mouth about a year ago.”

Dawson said, he did not follow his dentist’s advice to have a doctor take a closer look and instead another six months passed.

“Found out it was a form of oral cancer, which was totally shocking. You never want to hear the word ‘cancer.’ There’s no doubt about that. That kind of blew me away.”

Thursday, Dawson told his Instagram followers that he is celebrating the good news by eating at Cracker Barrel.
