Terry Bradshaw Cancer Free After Two Battles With Cancer This Year
By Movieguide® Contributor
NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Terry Bradshaw recently shared that he has battled cancer twice this year — and won.
Bradshaw revealed his diagnosis after some fans of FOX NFL SUNDAY noticed that he was having trouble catching his breath during a recent episode.
“A lot of people are asking what’s wrong with me, what’s happened to me physically. I just want to address it and let you know what has happened in my life,” Bradshaw started.
He continued:
“In November, I was diagnosed with bladder cancer. I went to the Yale University Medical Center – surgery, treatment. As of today, I am bladder-cancer free. That’s the good news. Then in March, feeling good. I had a bad neck. I get an MRI. Now we find a tumor in my left neck. And it’s a Merkel cell tumor, which is a rare form of skin cancer. So I had that surgery done at M.D. Anderson in Houston. Folks, I may not look like my old self, but I feel like my old self. I’m cancer free, I’m feeling great. And over time, I’m going to be back to where I normally am.”
His co-host, Michael Strahan, responded, “TB, everybody here, we know what you’ve been going through. You are the ultimate teammate, and you know we love you, and you hold this show together.”
“And regardless of all of that, we’re just so happy that you’re here,” he continued. “We’re happy that you’re cancer free, and I think you’re going to give a lot of hope to a lot of people out there who are going through something very similar.”
