SharkmanthaC 114,747 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Alex Trebek has resumed his chemotherapy treatments and it has been reported that he may not return to Jeopardy. It really doesn't sound like he's doing well. Alex Trebek is hinting that his long tenure as host of "Jeopardy!" may be nearing an end. Trebek told CTV he has begun to get sores inside his mouth from the chemotherapy, which makes it difficult to enunciate. He sometimes hears himself slurring his words on the quiz show, he said. "I will keep doing it (the show) as long as my skills do not diminish, and they have started to diminish," he told CTV's Lisa LaFlamme in an interview Friday. ... "The thought of the pancreatic cancer does not frighten me," he told LaFlamme. "I'm 79 years old. So, hey, I've lived a good life, a full life, and I'm nearing the end of that life. I know that." https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/07/us/alex-trebek-pancreatic-cancer-hosting-trnd/index.html she/her/hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
