National Cancer Survivors Day extra special for local man
NANAIMO — National Cancer Survivors Day (Sunday, June 4) is just what the doctor ordered for Lantzville resident Lyall Woznesensky.
The 64-year-old retired professional football player was on the receiving end of an uplifting phone call from his doctor this past Thursday.
“He said I’m as cancer free as can be right at this time…we got some of the best news of our lives.”
Woznesensky had been battling melanoma since August, 2015 when he noticed what appeared to be a rather innocent blister on his chest.
