Iconic “Jeopardy!” host Alex Trebek says he will stop cancer treatment if this current round fails.
In an interview with The New York Times, Trebek said,
“Yesterday morning my wife came to me and said, ‘How are you feeling?’ And I said, ‘I feel like I want to die.’ It was that bad.”
“There comes a time where you have to make a decision as to whether you want to continue with such a low quality of life, or whether you want to just ease yourself into the next level. It doesn’t bother me in the least.”
Trebek has Stage 4 pancreatic cancer, which has a 9% survival rate. He said he’s still looking forward to hosting “Jeopardy!” again, but will stop hosting if he starts “slipping.”
