Venturini cancer free after chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery: Bill
Venturini, ARCA champion and owner of Venturini Motorsports, has posted
on Facebook that he is cancer free after treatment for stage 3 rectal
cancer. Venturini took to Facebook to share the news:
Venturini:
"Back in June I was diagnosed with rectal cancer,
stage 3. It was also in my lymph nodes. After 6 months of Chemo and the
30 straight days of radiation, then 8 more weeks anticipating
what’s going to. Today was the day to remove tumor and see
how we have done. Dr. Dobson (Dr. McDreamy) as the nurses call him is
the best. He tried a relatively new approach to this. Chemo, radiation,
then surgery. The good NEWS, I’m still alive,Cancer is gone,
tumor surgery when better than expected. As soon as we all can get back
to The thing that we love,RACING, I am planning on being there." (In
