Hall of Famer Lou Brock received wonderful news from doctors at Mercy Hospital on Friday. Three months after being diagnosed with blood cancer, the Cardinals legend announced he’s cancer free.

Brock was diagnosed in April with multiple myeloma, a blood cancer formed by malignant plasma cells. These cells are found in the bone marrow and are an important part of the immune system.

The Brocks released the following statement late Friday afternoon:

“To God be the glory! Today I received the greatest news ever. My doctor informed me that I am cancer free. The battle against Cancer is not easy. However I remained hopeful. I would like to thank my family, friends and fans for all their prayers and support during the battle. With the power of Almighty God all things are possible!”
