Michael Irvin has had an anxious week as he was awaiting the results of a test to determine if he had throat cancer, but the Dallas Cowboys legend got some good news on Sunday.
In an Instagram post, Irvin revealed that his biopsy came back clean.
“Thank you God for continuing to answer Prayers and Thank you ALL for Praying. I spoke with Dr St John at UCLA Medical and she has informed me that all test have come back 100!% clean. NO CANCER!!!!!!” Irvin wrote. “It is impossible to express my family and my appreciation for the overwhelming out pour of love, support and prayers. I was on my threshing floor dealing with the stronghold of fear. You all covered and encourage me. To God be the Glory.”
That’s obviously great news for Irvin, as he has a family history with throat cancer. When he announced earlier in the week that that he had to undergo testing, Irvin revealed that his father died of throat cancer at age 51, which is why he said he was “terrified” about the same happening to him.
The positive update was refreshing news, and hopefully the same remains true for Irvin going forward.
