Pete Brennan: Shot of His Life

Posted May 30, 2012
Today, the shot of his life for Pete Brennan is what he calls a “miracle drug” named Lupron, which he is taking to slow down and contain the prostate cancer that has spread to a nearby bone mass. Brennan, 6-7 and 220 pounds in his playing days, is in tough shape at UNC Hospitals as he also fights to recover from severe Diverticulitis that requires heavy-duty antibiotics. (Chapelboro.com)
