James Van Der Beek is keeping his loved ones close during his cancer battle … stepping out in Austin with his family for a grocery store run.
Check it out … the “Dawson’s Creek” alum is seen swinging by a Whole Foods in Texas with several of his children in tow — proving life goes on even amid health troubles.
In the photos, James holds his head high, wearing a camo-inspired ensemble … including a baseball cap, cut-off tee, and shorts. The actor is the epitome of a doting dad in the pics, with JVDB holding hands with one of his little ones and helping another carry a big paper bag.
This excursion comes a week after James spoke out about his colorectal cancer diagnosis … which he’s currently receiving treatment for. At the time, he said he had “reason for optimism” on his health journey, adding he’s been “feeling good.”
He added in a candid Instagram update … “I’ve been dealing with this privately until now, getting treatment and dialing in my overall health with greater focus than ever before. I’m in a good place and feeling strong. It’s been quite the initiation, and I’ll tell you more when I’m ready.”
