The ‘Jeopardy’ host has stage IV pancreatic cancer.
When my grandmother was diagnosed with cancer in December 2013 at the age of 83, I initially figured that she would “fight” it valiantly.
— Mr. T March 7, 2019 Thank you, Alex Trebek, for being the fantastic host of my favorite television game show for as long as I can remember. You've had an amazing run, overcome some amazing challenges, and I wish you the best as you battle pancreatic cancer. You rock! My mom died of pancreatic cancer. She lived three months after her stage 4 diagnosis. I like Alex Trebek and I wish him well but I hate his implication that if my mom had fought harder or wanted to win more, it would have made a difference. https://t.co/oeC6q6ii2J
The “battle” language can make having cancer seem like a one-time event that the patient controls, then moves on from. The reality isn’t so simple. For a growing number of people diagnosed with cancer, advancements in medicine have made living with it closer to having a chronic condition, Lichtenfeld noted.
