Beloved TV judge Frank Caprio, known for his role on "Caught in Providence," recently completed his treatment for pancreatic cancer and is proudly displaying his regained strength.
On July 14, Caprio shared a video on Instagram, demonstrating his recovery by performing push-ups. Diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year, the 87-year-old judge assured his fans that he is now healthy.

In the video, Caprio confidently stated, "I’m feeling great," before responding to a question about his strength. "How’s my strength? Let’s find out," he said, proceeding to do three push-ups and then flexing his arms, adding, "I can give you a lot more."
He captioned the video, "I'M BACK 💪💪... @therealfrankcaprio #strength #recovery #87yearsold #feelinggood #beatingcancer #pushups #caughtinprovidence."
Caprio was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in November 2023, coinciding with his 87th birthday. After six months of chemotherapy and five radiation treatments, he admitted the process was "debilitating."
"You can't give up hope because the treatment is a very trying experience," Caprio shared last month, emphasizing the importance of mental resilience. "You have to dig down deep within your courage and make up your mind that you're going to beat this."
Expressing gratitude for the excellent medical care he received, Caprio acknowledged the tough battle. "I know it was a bleak prognosis, but I never gave up hope," he said.
In May, Caprio celebrated completing his treatment at Baptist Health Miami Cancer Institute by ringing the hospital bell, a symbol of victory over cancer. "I went from getting pancreatic cancer and not many people having any hope that I'd live — to successfully completing five doses of radiation," he told.

Describing the bell-ringing as a moment of "optimism" in his cancer journey, Caprio was surrounded by his loved ones and hospital staff during this emotional experience. "Ringing that bell to me was more symbolic than anything else you could imagine," he said. "I'm ringing the bell of happiness. I'm ringing the bell of freedom from cancer. I'm ringing the bell of healing. I'm ringing the bell of giving hope to other people."

˹He will also give you˺ another favour that you long for: help from Allah and an imminent victory. ˹So˺ give good news ˹O Prophet˺ to the believers.
