“Chicago Fire” star Robyn Coffin announced she was diagnosed with breast cancer while launching a GoFundMe for support.

“As many of you may know, Robyn has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Terrible news,” Gianine DeFrancesco wrote on the crowdfunding platform created this past Friday.

“The good news – she has a crack team at the hospital organizing and planning her surgery and aftercare and recovery,” she added.

DeFrancesco, who is co-organizing the GoFundMe with Coffin, said the actress will undergo a right partial mastectomy with magseed localization on Dec. 3 that will be followed by radiation.

“Robyn has a pre-op visit on 11/24/26. If that visit results in affirming the right partial mastectomy, Robyn is expecting to be out of work for 3 weeks,” she wrote.

“If a full mastectomy is required, Robyn’s time off work will increase quite a bit, as the surgery is much more extensive,” DeFrancesco added.

“When Robyn doesn’t work, she doesn’t get paid. So, this go fund me is not only to fill in the gaps that insurance will surely leave, but also to help sustain Robyn and [husband] Grant while Robyn is off work.”

DeFrancesco said that though Coffin and her husband have insurance, she wants to “give them a nest egg” in case there are “surprises.”

“We know that with insurance the surgery and hospital bill will amount to $40k. Because the surgery is hard upon, this amount is most urgent,” she penned.
