Trey Mancini: "I have Stage III colon cancer. I started chemotherapy on April 13. And I am so lucky."

"I've always loved spring training.  It’s one of my favorite times of year.  It just has a slower pace, a softer edge. It’s friendly. And it’s all about baseball, and I love baseball. But this year it was a little bit tougher..."

My wife had Stage II colon cancer. Discovered during an operation ostensibly for diverticulitis. Great surgeon, chemo treatments for six months or so, cancer-free ever since. Knock on wood.

You can make it OK, Trey.

Oh dear, I hope it isn’t caused by pineapples.

LOL @ Beauregard

I hope he makes it too. There has been much scientific advance regarding cancer treatment with more specific protocols for the disease based on the cell type/RNA of the cancer. Even immunotherapy has been very promising in getting the body's immune system to recognize cancer cells as hostile and therefore attack them rather than being tricked into feeding them as one of their own.

Don't forget, both Darryl Strawberry and his childhood friend Eric Davis both are colorectal cancer survivors.

Can't say I was ever much of a Trey Mancini fan, but by the time I got to the end of his story, I became one. Definitely rooting for him. As a prostate cancer survivor myself (2009), I know there is life after surgery and treatment. Hope that's the case for Mancini, too!
