Doctors announce Jim Kelly's cancer has returned

 

...................................

 

 

My thoughts and prayers are with Jim Kelly and his family.  Hopefully, Jim Kelly can beat cancer for good. Today's news is very concerning to say the least.

 

I had the pleasure of meeting Jim Kelly at a charity event in 2012 in which he was honored. His speech was inspirational.  Kelly was very receptive to me and everyone who spoke to him in the audience.

The same way it originally appeared. He wasn't born with it.

A person can be deemed "cancer free" when no cancerous cells show up on scans. However, it is possible that the diseased cells are still present in small, undetectable accounts, which then grow exponentially, leading to recurrence.

Happens all the time. It's unfortunate.

 

I read the story that ESPN put out about Kelly recently and it sounds like he's already had a rough time with it.
