The Euphoria star lamented, "I don’t think this is the end of my story. I don’t feel like this is the end of me."

The journalist Swayer asked him with reference to the time he got to know about his medical condition the first time, “Who was your first call?”

However, the actor overwhelmed with emotions, lowered his head holding back his tears unable to give an answer.
