“I love life at this time,” he said. “I am doing everything possible to live it to the fullest, considering what happened.”
Sanders announced at the end of July that he had to remove his bladder after he was diagnosed with cancer in the low season.
“The men, all, are reviewed. Because if it weren’t for me to be proof of something else, they would not have encountered this,” he said at a press conference last month. “Be sure to get correct care because without wonderful people like this, I would not be sitting here because it grew very expected. But please, see.”

The Assistant Athletics Coach of Colorado Lauren Askevold and Dr. Janet Kukreja of UC Health broke the diagnosis and surgery schedule of Sanders.
Askevold said that Sanders had an act of his vascular pattern to verify if his blood clots had disappeared. She said that everything was fine from the vascular point of view until Sanders’ primary care doctor wanted to refer to a urologist. The doctor performed a procedure and then sent it to Kukreja, director of UC Health Ucology.

Sanders’ primary care doctor said the coach had a Bladder tumorAccording to Askevold.
“We proceeded with the elimination of the bladder tumor. We remove the tumor. It was very high grade, invading through the bladder wall, not in the muscle layer, something we call high -risk non -invasive bladder cancer,” Kukreja explained.
Kukreja said they discussed some options, but Sanders chose to undergo the elimination of the bladder and the creation of a new bladder.
“I am pleased to inform that the results of surgery are that it is cured of cancer,” he said.
Sanders rang the alarm of his health problems during the last months.

He revealed in a video published by his son Deion Sanders Jr. on Sunday that caused a will in the midst of concerns about his health. The video was filmed on May 9.
“Mentally, emotionally, it was difficult last night, yesterday it was hard, because I had to make a will. That is not easy at all to think that you are not here,” he said in the video.
Sanders took the work of Colorado before the start of the 2023 season, and brought his children, Shedeur and Shilo, and Travis Hunter with him from the state of Jackson.
The 2024 season was the most successful year of the two that the coach Prime had. Hunter won the Heisman trophy as a double position player, while the buffaloes finished 9-4 and played at the Bowl.
