Jim Mandich is battling cancer
Former Dolphin tight end and popular sportscaster Jim Mandich is battling cancer and that is why he took a leave of absence from WQAM a little over a month ago. He's undergoing chemotherapy and hopes to know in a matter of weeks if the treatment is working.
All thoughts and prayers are with Mandich and his family. Get well soon!
And if you want to share your well wishes with Jim, do so below in the comments. I'll be attempting to get this post to him in a day or so.
