Trebek claims that it is just so surprising because the doctors said that it is very rare to see such a positive result in this type of cancer as it only has 9% survival rate. He further told that some of his tumors have already shrunk by 50%.

He shared how he has experience of dealing with the stomach pain because of his kidney stones, but during this stage, the difficult part for him was the deep sadness that came with the pain.
