Ex-NHL star Ron Duguay hospitalized after losing consciousness amid Stage 4 cancer battle

William Shatner and his daughter Melanie Shatner Gretsch reveal their simultaneous stage 4 cancer battles. The TV legend was diagnosed with melanoma, and Melanie with breast cancer, both now cancer-free after extensive treatments. Dr. Marc Siegel discusses the remarkable advancements in immunotherapy and targeted therapy that led to their survival, highlighting the power of hope and cutting-edge medical interventions.

Former New York Rangers center Ron Duguay had a scary incident this past week as his daughter, Shay Thomas, revealed he fell unconscious at home and suffered injuries.

Thomas posted on Instagram Monday, where she revealed her father passed out after being "extremely dehydrated."

Duguay, who was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer earlier this year, also had "varices, portal hypertensive gastropathy, internal bleeding, and an ulcer," after seeing doctors.

"Our dad @ronduguay10 continues to show us just how strong he is," Thomas wrote on her post on Instagram. "On Friday, he fainted at home, was unconscious, injured a few parts of his face, and knocked out a few teeth in the fall…this time, it wasn’t from hockey. He was taken by ambulance to the hospital."

Duguay’s cancer is in his liver, and Thomas revealed that "pressure has built up inside the liver" after "surgery, chemotherapy, and the pump."

"That pressure can back up into the stomach and cause bleeding. The ulcer still needs further evaluation, but the bleeding and liver pressure are the major concerns right now," Thomas added.
