Some sad news about a Hall of Famer: Doctors have found more tumors on Gary Carter's brain, according to an online journal published by his family.
The former Expos and Mets star catcher made an appearance at his golf tournament's charity banquet, but was unable to attend the tournament the following day. The types of brain tumors from which Carter is suffering are inoperable.
"I'm not feeling too good," Carter told the New York Daily News recently. "It's been coming on and coming on. I've had a chest cold. I've got sores in my mouth, blood clots. I get sick. ... There's just so many things. ... It's been nine months now and I don't feel any different from Day One. I haven't been up to doing any interviews."
According to the Daily News, doctors and the family are deciding whether to proceed with further treatment. Carter, who made the Hall of Fame in 2003, will be 58 in April.
