Ryne Sandberg, the Cubs Hall of Famer, reveals his cancer has relapsed and spread, prompting a return to intensive treatment.
Chicago: So, Ryne Sandberg just shared some tough news. The Cubs Hall of Famer announced that his cancer has come back and spread to other organs. It’s a real bummer, especially after he had just told everyone he was cancer-free.
He had been diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer earlier this year. In July, he celebrated being cancer-free after a long battle. But now, he’s gearing up for more treatment. Sandberg expressed his gratitude for the support from fans and the Cubs community in his statement.
Ryne has always been a fighter. He played most of his career with the Cubs and was a fan favorite. He even won the NL MVP in 1984 and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2005. His resilience is inspiring, and many are rallying behind him as he faces this new challenge.
Just last month, the Cubs honored him with a statue outside Wrigley Field. It’s clear he means a lot to the team and the city. Everyone is hoping for the best as he starts this next round of treatment.
