http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-football/24483993/hof-qb-jim-kelly-again-diagnosed-with-cancer I thought some of you guys and gals would want to know. Sucky news to say the least........
This is a shame. I hope he pulls thru this. Despite him kicking our asses for years, I've always respected him as a competitor.
what a fukin shame - these head and neck cancers can be very difficult to deal with. wonder if he was a big chewing tobacco user. good luck jim.
Awful. Boomer was talking aout it yesterday, I think they are pretty good friends. I also think he said Kelly's wife has said the cancer is pretty aggressive and has spread which is the worst news. _
I believe he was, I did read something positive from the doctor treating him yesterday though. basically said this is treatable they just can't operate now and have to use chemo/radiation to fight it.
Once it has spread and is no longer a localized tumor, surgery can't get to the root problem. Our doctors likened it to pulling out a weed, said you can pull them all day but if you don't treat the entire lawn they are just going to keep coming up. Sucks. _
