Kathy Griffin Speaks In First Videos Since Lung Surgery: 'I Laugh at Everything Now'

Kathy Griffin is in good spirits following surgery to have part of her left lung removed.

On Sunday, the comedian proved she's on the mend and trying to keep things positive in a pair of videos shared to Instagram amid her recovery. In both clips, she's seen laughing and keeping things cheery as she explained how her recovery was going so far at home.

"I might start to post little videos about my recovery and stuff, but my voice is like really hoarse and I don't want to scare people," she said in the first clip. "I'm laughing, it's just just even that notion ... for some reason, I laugh at everything now. And if it's horrible, I laugh way more!"

She then proved that point by sharing a scary experience that went down at her home after returning home from surgery.

"I'm here and I'm recovering from cancer surgery and I have my left lung removed and yesterday I'm in bed and I hear this weird noise and I can't figure out what it is," she began. "I realize it's my poor husband screaming my name from the kitchen in a weird voice because he was making us lunch and he sliced his freaking hand open. I'm laughing because if he's calling for me for my help, it must be bad!"

She went down and found him bleeding profusely, with the couple's four dogs "trying to lick up the blood" around him. Continuing to crack up over the series of events, she said they called 9-1-1 and he was taken the the hospital. After he left, the door bell rang but, she joked, "I'm too famous to answer it." She then remembered a friend said they were sending her ice cream -- and she didn't want to risk missing it, so she answered the door sans pants to retrieve her gift.

Though she picked up the ice cream and the delivery man said he was a fan, she joked she retreated back into the house "with my shame," only to break into laughter again over the ridiculousness of the entire situation.

Kathy Griffin is in recovery after having part of her left lung removed in her battle against lung cancer.

On Wednesday night, the comedian said her recent surgery, "to be honest," was "a little more than I had anticipated." Following her stage 1 lung cancer diagnosis, she went under the knife earlier this week and "everything went well, per her doctor," a rep for Griffin told PEOPLE.

"Tonight will be my first night without any narcotic pain killers. Hello Tylenol, my new best friend!" Griffin continued last night.

"The last time I was in a hospital was in June 2020 when I tried to take my life and overdosed on prescription pills," she continued. "With one a year clear and drug free, I know I can do this and anything I want without those devil pills. Y'Know what? I fear drugs and addiction more than I fear cancer. So, I think I'll be ok."

Griffin's comments were flooded with well wishes from famous faces.

"You got this Kathy you are going to do great," wrote Andie MacDowell, while Debra Messing added, "Kathy you've GOT THIS. You are a warrior. And I'm proud of you. You are an inspiration."

Mariska Hargitay also wrote, "You got this," before Marc Jacobs commented, "One day at a time." Added Camryn Manheim: "You are a warrior Kathy. You got this. I hope you feel the sea of love crashing on your shores." Rosanna Arquette also wrote, "Love you Kathy. proud of you."

Griffin first disclosed her diagnosis on Monday.

"I've got to tell you guys something. I have cancer. I'm about to go into surgery to have half of my left lung removed," she began. "Yes, I have lung cancer even though I've never smoked!"

Saying the doctors were "very optimistic," Griffin added that there would "hopefully" be no chemotherapy or radiation required after surgery and she should "have normal function with my breathing."
