Did you not read my post?

Three years is a HUGE difference compared to "working out" a couple months after just being diagnosed. When did the chemo take place?

Have you ever know someone with Hodgkin's? I can't imagine a recovery this fast.

Not sure about HGH but you can be assured that right now Eric Berry most likely has some steroids in his body that would be considered PED's by the NFL.

Per Pete Sweeney

Eric Berry started chemotherapy on December 10, and continued to May 13.

JFC this guy is a ****ing beast. He won't take no for a answer.

Because every Eric Berry thread needs its song

penbrook · 07-29-2015, 10:17 AM

I'm surprised Berry didn't get charged with assault or something because he just destroyed Cancers ass

**BigMeatballDave** · 07-29-2015, 10:22 AM

I'm thinking HGH would make cancer grow/spread more rapidly.

penbrook · 07-29-2015, 10:24 AM

Berry worked out TWICE a day in Florida with Travis Kelce

penbrook · 07-29-2015, 10:24 AM

Very interesting

"One of the interesting things is, between Eric and his physician, they decided not to do a traditional route of chemotherapy administration which is used through what we refer to as a pick line or a port or a central line so that the IV would be in his arm and then into a major vein in his heart," Burkholder said. "He opted to have IVs every time that he got the chemotherapy. That was so that he could work out, which is an interesting concept that most patients don't have."

Dude is a freak of nature

A pick line is not exactly traditional for all types of Cancer.

My GF is an oncology nurse, and she said some people can do it.

Depends on the person, and their age, health, and determination.

Eric Berry is the new Chuck Norris.
