This is Troy's brother Alex. Troy sadly passed away while surrounded by family last night. On behalf of Troy, his wife Brennah, and the Hermo family I'd like to thank everyone for supporting, donating, and cheering on Troy through his battle with cancer. He loved all of you.
Got the worst news ever today.
Doc says he doesnβt feel comfortable continuing treatment. Heβs suggesting hospice with how Iβm doing, says treatment will most likely kill me too.
Says I have weeks to live. Like everything else I will beat that.
Love you all.

With love, from Mrs. Hermo β€οΈ
Troyβs impact on this community continues to blow us away. Thank you for the continued love and support. Before his passing, Troy had expressed wanting to extend his Celebration of Life to all of you. For any of those who feel inspired to join us
At the ER, got this impending feeling of doom , they are going to do a bunch of tests and try to figure out why Iβm going south the past few days. Pray for me. Trying to stay strong. Can barely move
#Hermostrong
I love you all.
Surgery was a success, there was a ton of goop on the tube so definitely had a horrid infection. Most likely will have to get my stent replaced as well while Iβm here. But they will put me out for that β¦ thank god, no man never needs to see a rod and tube come out of his unit.
Today has been by far the worst since Iβve been here. Between the pain, constipation , dehydration itβs been an absolute struggle bus.
But thereβs no where I would rather be. Everyday is a gift, every day is an opportunity, leave no stone unturned. Carpe Diem.
Blessed with
Doctor used the word days today. Which scared the fuck out of me. Mainly because Iβm probably gonna need a feeding tube in the next couple days. Promise Iβm going to fight this

How the hell is A Rod overrated? Top 10 player of all time. 3 time MVP, 14 time all star, champion, 696 home runsβ¦β¦.Cmon now computer
Today has been a much better day, still tough, got to brush my teeth, drank a bunch of broth in some soup, drank lots of juice, havenβt thrown up, been able to keep my eyes open all day because Iβm not on morphine. Letβs keep the momentum going into Monday.
Got the heat pad going, oxygen going, got cranberry juice and ensure nutrition drinks on deck. Can have more pain pills in an hour. Iβm going to make it today. Hopefully no hospital. Dealing with a lot so no sheets right now
Doctor came in this morning and told me I was borderline sepsis last night , so thank god I came into the hospital. Feeling a lot better with antibiotics and fluids. Still have extreme weakness in the legs which doc hopes improve over the next few days. Time table is 5-7 days
Finally reached the milestone Iβve been trying to reach on Twitter since I started with 279 followers. Hermos army 10K strong now. Forever thankful for each and everyone of you. I want to help you win bets but also inspire you everyday that anything is possible. Thank you for
My mindset every morning, cancer is gonna have to rip the life from me. No matter how tough it gets, how swollen I get , or how immobile I get, itβs going to take a lot to get me to leave this earth.
Nephrostomy tube surgery again tomorrow morning. They said it needs to be done to remove all chance of bacteria. Will be tough but Iβm stronger, gonna get it done and sleep all day.
Just want to say how thankful I am for all of you. It feels amazing how many people I have
Just letting you all knowβ¦. The support Iβve gotten today is unbelievable. I can feel your love and prayers. I will try to get back to everyone who has reached out later tonight. Grieving with my family right now.
And because Iβm crazy, hereβs my play for tonight. Still
So weak. Everytime I get up my heart rate goes crazy and I start throwing up . Trying to figure out how to get lots of fluids in me cause Iβm sure the heart rate is dehydration . Looks like my oral thrush is back which could be attributing to my heart burn, starting some meds on
Iβm so optimistic this morning. Weβve found 3 trials that I could qualify for and Iβm really praying for this Wagner vaccine. Your support and having my family around me really pumps me up. This isnβt the end. This doctor is wrong. I am stronger than anyone knows and wonβt ever
As more and more people join

the party we are going to have in Vegas when I beat this thing is getting more legendary by the minute. Weβre going to need a convention space.
Nurse Paul tonight has been a heaven sent, got me all the meds, got me a mini fan , been rubbing numbing cream on my extremely swollen feet and got my pain meds I like. Thank god for nurses who go above and beyond for their patients. Only reason I got 7 hours of sleep.

Best friend brought over dumplings, chicken lettuce wraps, rice and a brownie that they are baking now so itβs going to be fresh. All homemade. Unbelievable.
Vaped a bunch of weed
Happiest Iβve been in weeks. So thankful for friends like him
Got a state of the art juicer , gonna start taking some holistic blend to decrease tumors. Also got a bunch of medicinal mushrooms, gonna try to help myself maybe get some natural reactions. Find the right combo weeks could turn into
Months, months could turn into years. Iβm not
After talking with doctors today, weβre probably going to try and find a good hospice nurse , just need more help in the home, can tell the people taking care of me is just so much stress. Iβm comfy, but just feel this would be the best chance of me living a lot longer.
We got a great plan going forward. Heβs got a solution to most all my problems and Iβm going to execute the plan.
Ad Rutschman, who won a national championship in both football and baseball at linfield college in McMinnville had a 5 steps to success.

We have sent over everything to get into this phase 2 Wagner Vaccine Trial which in my opinion is the best case scenario for my miracle. 60% success rate with stage 4 patients thats have been told they are dead. Its in south carolina but i would be willing to make that road trip
I am TIRED after surgery , meds started wearing off and I was like fuckkkkk , got more meds but I am exhausted. Just got moved up in bed see if that helps. Sleeping as much as I can.
Love you all, I was down for the count last time for like 2-3 days after replacement. Hoping I
My biggest hero. He stared death right in the face and lived 3 years longer then any projected time for his disease at the time .
I consider myself the luckiest man because I get to share my picks and story with you everyday. Itβs an honor and a privilege to wake up and give you
I accomplished both my goals today, sat up and just drank a bunch of soup. Tired but feels good reaching my goals for the day. Now to fix my back pain, took oral pain pills and they havenβt worked. Was told I can have iv here in an hour . Hope that helps

20 tumors in my lungs. 1 tumor on my gland.
Goal is gene test shows a mutation and we can target a treatment.
Still outside shot keytruda gets rid of tumors in 6 months.
If nothing comes back I got probably 1-3 more years. Says surgery isnβt possible
Gonna fight till the end.
So Iβm not trying to get my hopes up, but I feel on my stomach everyday and every morning and I swear itβs been shrinking not growing . Doc 3 weeks ago said it would just keep growing . Well I can tell you this morning it is way smaller, the fasting? Cause I canβt get food down?
Cancer update:
Iβm through 4 cycles of chemo, side effects have really kicked my ass. Iβm in bed 98% of the day and I can barely do anything for myself. This round has been ultra brutal which makes sense cause every cycle my toxicity goes up and also a week and a half ago I had
Beat cancer.
Move to the Oregon Coast.
Open Hermos Pizzeria with my brother.
Become a dad.
Observe a bigger role at BR and become more of a familiar face in the sports gambling world.
Gonna accomplish all these things in 2 years or less.
