OT: Small Nebraska fan's cancer is in remission

Submitted by MaizeAndBlueWahoo on

Everyone remembers the story of the little guy, Jack Hoffman, who scored a touchdown at the Nebraska spring game while battling brain cancer.  The world learned today that his cancer is in remission and he no longer needs chemotherapy.  Of course he will need monitoring and maybe more treatment in the future, but his case is moving in a very positive direction, and it's great to start the day off reading some good news like that.  Because fuck little-kid cancer, man - it's the worst thing ever.  Go Jack!

great news. No kid should have to endure that. Heck, nobody should but it's especially hard to see a child battle that. Hope it's a huge step to his eventual defeating it.

I couldn't agree more and will pray it doesn't come back.  I love the support that the Cornhuskers and Rex Burkehead have given the kid.
