TigerJ Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 The good news is that Jim Kelly's surgery is an indication that testing did not find metasticized cancer in other parts of the body. I wouldn't be surprised if he underwent more chemo in case there are undetectable cancers elsewhere, but there is still hope he can beat this.

26CornerBlitz Posted March 29, 2018 Author Share Posted March 29, 2018 Just now, bbb said: So, was the cancer also in his lymph nodes? The wording if taken literally is that they took the cancer only from the jaw. Don't they often remove lymph nodes as a means to prevent the spread of the disease?

Could be, but now that you say that, I just thought about how it went with my mother's breast cancer surgery. They removed lymph nodes and THEN tested them. I believe if it was 3 or more testing positive, they considered it to be spread, and then she had 4. (It was one over, whatever the baseline was) - but she lived 13 more years, and didn't die of cancer. So, that is probably it - removing them to test them. Or, to prevent spreading as you said.

Inigo Montoya Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) 13 hours ago, Royale with Cheese said: My dad went through radiation to beat his cancer and after 13 sessions, he beat it but it took a toll on his body. I can't imagine what Jim is going through. This is multiple procedures for him. I respected Kelly for his toughness as a player but that level of respect has increased dramatically after going through this.....you have to be tough to go through this again. Prayers for Jim. If anyone can handle this, it's him. As hard as this must be for him, I'm sure it pales when compared to what he went through with his son, Hunter. As a dad I can't imagine anything that could be worse than losing a child. Jim and his family have been through so much. I hope they get a Mulligan on this one. They've definitely earned it.

Fadingpain Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 It remains shocking to see Jim Kelly at this age. He looks at least 15 years older than he actually is. The scary part is I don't think it is a function of his cancer battle. I think it is a result of playing NFL football for many years. That **** just ages you.

jimmy10 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 My wife is a medical speech therapist who has seen cases like Jim’s before. Some of the gory details are pretty f’d up. He’s got a long road ahead of him, but we all know that. All prayers, good vibes, well wishes, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just really hope his cancer stays gone for good this time! He's been through so much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
