00:59 Hi, everyone.
01:03 I have some news to share with all of you.
01:05 And it's in keeping with my longtime policy
01:08 of being open and transparent with our Jeopardy fan base.
01:12 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:15 This week, I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer.
01:22 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:25 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:28 I've had kidney stones.
01:39 I've had ruptured discs.
01:41 So I'm used to dealing with pain.
01:42 But what I'm not used to dealing with
01:44 is these surges that come on suddenly of deep, deep sadness.
01:51 And it brings tears to my eyes.
01:53 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:56 Now, normally, the prognosis for this is not very encouraging.
02:02 But I'm going to fight this.
02:04 And I'm going to keep working.
02:06 And with the love and support of my family and friends,
02:10 and with the help of your prayers also,
02:13 I plan to beat the low survival rate
02:16 statistics for this disease.
02:17 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:22 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:25 I'm a 62-day survivor.
02:32 Ladies and gentlemen, the survivors
02:36 who will help get the message across that there is hope.
02:42 And if we keep working at it, we will beat cancer.
02:46 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:49 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:53 Keep the faith, and we'll win.
03:11 We'll get it done.
03:13 Thank you.
