Chicago Cubs legend Ryne Sandberg took to social media to share a heartfelt message with fans as he continues his fight against prostate cancer:

To all my Fans and extended baseball Family –

I wanted to share an update regarding my health. It’s been a challenging few months as I have been going through treatment on a regular basis. While I am continuing to fight, I’m looking forward to making the most of every day with my loving family and friends. I haven’t been to Wrigley Field as much as I hoped in the first half but I’m watching every game and am excited for the second half and to see Wrigley rocking like 1984!

Thank you for all the messages of support. Go Cubs!
