[教練] UConn's Jim Calhoun
UConn's Jim Calhoun announces he has cancer
Rip Hamilton's former coach at the University of Connecticut announced this
afternoon that he has been fighting skin cancer.
May 30, necn.com: Longtime University of Connecticut Men's basketball coach
Jim Calhoun is battling cancer for a second time. The coach held a press
conference Friday afternoon announcing that he is being treated for skin
cancer...
Dr. Spiro says it is likely that first bit of cancer spread to the lymph
node. The node was removed along with 37 others and part of Calhoun's
salivary gland during surgery in early May. Tests on that tissue came back
negative. He will undergo six weeks of radiation treatment this summer as a
precaution. Dr. Jeffrey Spiro: To the best of my knowledge, the coach is
cancer free now.
Just as any of us would, Coach Calhoun says when he first got this news he
thought about his family. His wife, Pat, their children, their grandchildren.
But he also thought about his extended family - his basketball family. Two
guys in particular, who he's watching right now, go head to head in the NBA
playoffs. Rick Hamilton for the Detroit pistons and Ray Allen for the Boston
Celtics.
Calhoun: Those are my kids. Watching them both actually play defense is
really, really exciting. My point being that I really thoroughly enjoy what I
do. I enjoy my kids. My own family and my basketball family.
A lot of prayers are going out to the long-time UConn head coach.
