Did they say what stage it was? My guess is no since the announcement didn’t say what kind it was. I am praying for him.

So much bad news about cancer lately. My friend's esophageal cancer returned, and my cousin's husband has terminal cancer.

Prayers for you, Tony! Too many younger actors from the show lost already--Ken Osmond, Frank Bank, Stanley Fafara.

From what I gather, Tony was diagnosed with cancer once before, and it went into remission.

If your here with us Wally please let us know how you are,ok???I doubt he reads these boards. Actors don't generally post here at SO, with a few exceptions like Shavar Ross and Jory Husain.

If you are connected with Facebook, you can go visit the Leave It to Beaver page (I forget which one, there are several but there is one in particular on which Tony Dow is active). Tony or his wife Lauren post updates there. That's how I found out about Tony's having had cancer once before.
