Ryan Seacrest began to cry as he revealed this week that his father Gary, to whom he is ‘very close,’ has been battling prostate cancer.
Gary was diagnosed ‘years ago,’ and although he underwent treatments including chemotherapy, the illness ‘got worse and it spread.’
As his system was battered by the combination of the cancer and the measures taken to combat it, he contracted pneumonia and wound up in intensive care.For four months Gary was confined to either the hospital or his home with ‘full-time care,’ his son revealed on his radio show On Air with Ryan Seacrest.
Now Gary is mere days away from his 79th birthday, and when Ryan asked him what he wanted for the occasion, he gave a heartrending reply.
