Legendary comedian Robert Schimmel, known for many HBO specials and most recently with turning his bout with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2000 into the book Cancer on $5 a Day (chemo not included): How Humor Got Me Through the Toughest Journey of My Life, is in serious condition after a car accident last week in Arizona.

Schimmel's 19-year-old daughter was driving and had to swerve to avoid an accident, causing their car to roll onto it's side.

His daughter was hospitalized in stable condition. His 11-year-old son was released without any injuries.

More on this as news is released.
