This is a case where it sure would be nice to know if he thought he was cured so he just stopped taking any drugs, and didn’t get PSA tests.
One would think an ADT drug and an ARSI drug could’ve kept him going for years.
I must admit, I have not heard of someone going from remission to full blown reoccurrence in 4 months, when they were on drugs. It not only returned, it spread to other organs.
This was in another AP article
“Sandberg announced in January 2024 that he had been diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer. He had chemotherapy and radiation treatments, and then said in August 2024 that he was cancer-free.
But he posted on Instagram on Dec. 10 that his cancer had returned and spread to other organs.”
I would like to know how he was treated because this would be quite disturbing if he was on drugs, and it still happened. The possibilities it portends for all of us.

I’m sure there is a lot to the story that we dont know about. I know he announced the cancer diagnosis in Jan 2024, but he could have known for a while before he announced to the world. We don’t know how bad his spread was when discovered. We don’t know his history of treatments. He could have turned down hormone therapy in favor of chemo. He could be one of those cases of NEPC from the beginning. All of this sort of reminds me about Biden’s story and how some things didn’t add up.
