Alex Trebek from Jeopardy

[makeblessed]

Sad to  this and he announced it with such class and grace; prayers to him and his family.

Alex should continue his optimism and he should be ok, prayers for Alex Trebek!

Oh wow that's terrible and sad to hear.  My mother's friend had it.  Found out around July/ August and was gone around November.

Sad to read the news about him. Always love watching his show. Praying for him and his love ones to pass this situation in life.

Let's hope that he can survive. This type of cancer is hard to treat. But I do hope he can make it.

[beatsdrop]

This is awful. I'm really praying he can beat the odds, but that cancer is the worst you can get. I love Alex Trebek, ugh.

[s34g35j]

very sad to hear but as he said he can beat and besides he has to cause he has 3 more years on his contract but all prayers sent his way

[pectacon]

I was so sad to hear this on the radio the other night. My prayers go out to his family. I know that's an especially nasty type of cancer but I hope he beats it.

That is reallyo too bad.  Pancreatic cancer has such a low survival rate.  I hope he can hold on until his contract is over.

That is 3 years.  If he makes it that long he needs to just live to be an old man. lol  He said he couldn't die because he had 3 years left on his contract. haha

I am just curious as to how he can keep doing the show and go thru the treatments.  They are pretty rough.
Maybe they will work with him.

Has anyone else ever hosted Jeopardy?  I could not imagine if he no longer hosted the show someone else doing the show. 
Or liking it.

Art Fleming was the original host.

I do not know who that is.  I never knew anybody but Alex to host it.  I will have to look that up. 

[bshee58]

Praying for him.

[heypeg]

That is such a shame.

[ktheodos]

sad indeed....and such a rare disease to beat

[hitch0403]

Alex yrs earlier hosted Concentration.He was quite good on that show too.

[jenniferhoder]

Very sad news indeed.... He's going to try and fight it, but I don't see it lasting very long.

[elvisdo]

This was a shocker when announced it. I really pray for the best for him.
