His Three-Time Cancer Fight

His Three-Time Cancer Fight

Jason Tonsfeldt got attacked by a bear and now has a huge scar on his neck. Or at least that is what he and his family jokes happened to him to find some humor in a tough situation. In reality, Jason’s scar was the result of doctors removing lymph nodes from his neck following a cancer diagnosis in 2021. This was not the first time he was diagnosed with cancer, nor would it be the last. Tonsfeldt is again fighting cancer currently. He and his wife, Ali, shared the journey Jason’s cancer has taken their family on. 04/12/2023 12:00 AM
