Great news for Tom Brokaw, as the award-winning former NBC News anchor has announced that his cancer has gone into remission. It was in February when Brokaw confirmed that he was suffering from multiple myeloma and battling a cancer that affects blood cells in his bone marrow. He first got the bad news of his diagnosis in August 2013 and has been battling the illness ever since. Brokaw first started with NBC News in 1966 and, since retiring from the anchor seat in 2014, has stayed on with the network, working on various special projects. Even while battling cancer Brokaw has popped up with reports and interviews, proving that even what could have been a deadly disease was not going to slow him down. Just last week, Brokaw was part of a presidential delegation that traveled to Belgium to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge. It was an experience that he chose to share, along with his good news, in an email to his colleagues:
