Lunchbreak: Doleman Feeling 'Great' After Brain Cancer Surgery
Chris Doleman is progressing well after having brain cancer surgery nearly two months ago.The Pro Football Hall of Fame enshrinee and member of the Vikings Ring of Honor underwent surgery on Jan. 25 to remove a tumor that was discovered only a few days before the surgery.
Doleman recently chatted with Chris Tomasson of the Pioneer Press about his recovery and the support he has received in recent weeks.
Tomasson wrote:
Doleman was diagnosed with glioblastoma, the same cancer Arizona Sen. John McCain has. He had surgery on Jan. 25 to remove a tumor. During the procedure, two additional tumors were found, and they are now being treated by radiation. He also is undergoing chemotherapy.
