Ron Duguay Leaves Hospital, Prepares for New Cancer Treatment

Former New York Rangers star Ron Duguay has been discharged from the hospital following a recent health scare. Last week, his daughter, Shay Thomas, revealed on Instagram that the 12-year NHL veteran collapsed at home, leading to a hospital visit where doctors diagnosed him with severe dehydration. Duguay, who is battling Grade 4 colon cancer that has metastasized to his liver, suffered facial injuries during the incident.

Shay provided an update on her father’s condition after his release, noting that while he is not yet feeling his best, he is taking steps to regain his strength. “He still isn’t feeling his best or eating much, but he is taking it day by day, trying to get down some soup and slowly regain his strength,” she shared.

The family’s primary focus now is on preparing Duguay for his next treatment. “Our main focus is getting him strong enough to travel back to Orange County and return to City of Hope,” Shay explained. Duguay’s upcoming treatment involves Bizengri, also known as zenocutuzumab-zbco, a targeted therapy designed to block specific signals that promote cancer cell growth. The family remains hopeful that this new treatment will yield positive results.
