Eight months ago, Steve Blake wondered if he'd ever be able to pick up a club again.
Steve Blake loves to be on the golf course and says it's how he gets away.
However, eight months ago, he wondered if he would ever be able to pick up a club again.
Blake had a persistent cough that wasn't getting any better, so he decided to get it checked out.
That's when he learned that despite not smoking, he had stage four lung cancer.
"We knew it wasn't going to be good," said Blake, 56.
"(The doctor) said 12 to 24 months, but I really grabbed onto that and said, 'I just want this to be the starting point. I'll see you in 24 months, and then we'll discuss another prognosis if you've got one for me.'"
Despite everything he has gone through, Blake was determined to get back on the course, and did a few months back in Arizona.
