James Van Der Beek says he is preparing to part with some of the most meaningful items from his acting career — including the beloved 'Joey necklace' from Dawson's Creek — as rising cancer treatment costs force the actor into difficult decisions.
The 48-year-old star, who is battling colon cancer, described the move as heartbreaking but necessary, telling fans he hopes the cherished mementoes will now serve a greater purpose in helping him continue his fight.
