Seriously gracious and so sad to hear.


I watched his announcement and I am praying that he is going to beat this like he says he's going to. He looks so good and healthy. I just can't believe that he could be so sick.

He plans to keep on working. He's amazing.


That struck me, too. He looks and sounds amazing. Please let him beat this.

I really hope he confounds the statistics.

This reminds me so much of Peter Jennings announcing his lung cancer (maybe because I also loved him and watched him every night).

My sons and I have gone to the Jeopardy tapping in LA 3 summers in a row. Alex always takes questions from the audience during the breaks. He always called on my boys and gave very thoughtful answers which always included a joke. He definitely seems like the real deal. I pray for a miracle for him.

Terribly sad and the video he made was amazing. If a positive attitude counts for anything then he'll do well.

Isn't he one of the few people all Americans like and trust?

My colleague's father was diagnosed and died a few weeks later. It was a real shock as he had been healthy until his diagnosis.

Oh wow. My dad who was THE hugest Jeopardy fan passed away last year. We can’t even listen to the theme song without dissolving into tears.

Such sad news. My FIL was dead 5 months after he was diagnosed. Very hard to treat.

Three weeks from diagnosis to death for my dad, too. It’s a brutal disease.
