28. Tom Brokaw

Recommended Posts

I know that the 77 year old Tom Brokaw has been diagnosed with the incurable multiple myeloma. Might be someone to consider for next years list.

He's been in remission for a while now.

Even though he's in remission, his health problems could easily return and I think this thread is necessary.

He doesn't seem to be the type of pick the committee would pick, but then again, they selected Robert Novak in 2009. Either way, he's a bad pick for now.

There's not a single thread in this entire forum that is necessary.

That could be said on a fair number of individual celeb threads, CarolAnn.

Cue a “my cancer has returned much more aggressively” in about 3 month or so...

A little overdramatic reaction from a few of you over an announcement having nothing at all to do  with his previous cancer.  He didn't have bone cancer  no reason he can't walk short of arthritis or summat.   (Hangnail)....by GOD PUT HIM ON 2019 LIST

Sells his New York Getaway. There’s rumors going around that he’s in very poor health as well...

I heard him in an interview recently where he said some controversial stuff. He sounded terrible in that interview. I think a cancer relapse (if it hasn’t happened already) isn’t that far away...

EDIT: Interview for reference...

Good job cmme! No one posted his cancer update until a few days ago. That one almost fell down the side of the couch.

News is he has been in and out of hospital due to severe infections from his blood cancer.  Fighting a tough battle apparently.  He is 84.

Article says he has around the clock home care too. 

Hm.

Not always a death sentence, but in this case likely indicative of his health not being the best to say it lightly.
