The Christmas holiday season is expected to be a time of festivities, joy and cheer. However, that is not always the case. Over the last month it has been reported that Baseball Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg of Spokane, Washington has resumed cancer treatment according to Jordan Bastian of mlb.com, and that Football Hall of Famer Randy Moss of Rand, West Virginia has been diagnosed with gastrointestinal cancer according to Ian Ingram of Medpage Today. For Moss, there was a cancerous tumour found between his pancreas and liver.
For Sandberg, he initially had prostate cancer in January. According to the Associated Press, he stated in August that he was cancer free after chemotherapy and cancer treatments. Now the cancer has spread to other organs, and Sandberg is undergoing intense procedures with the hope he will try to beat cancer a second time.
