ESPN Chicago reported that Turner Sports reporter Craig Sager returned to work after a 11-month battle with cancer. In the article Sager explains his mindset throughout treatment and determination to get back to work:
" 'I never had a bad day mentally. I really didn't,' he said. 'I was very optimistic, positive, believed in my doctors. Sure, some days physically were worse than others, but I always felt that if I did what they said to do, I'd be all right. It took longer than I thought, because I had a very tough infection and then I came down with pneumonia, and when you compound pneumonia with leukemia, people start talking mortality rates and all. I didn't pay any attention to it. Maybe I was naive, but I really didn't think about the negative things. I just said, 'I want to get back.' "
