Jill Kelly, the wife of the great Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly, took to social media to announce that Jim is finished with chemotherapy for his sinus cancer. Jill posted a picture on Instagram with Jim holding a piece of paper saying “Last chemo thank you God!!” With the hashtag “#prayersfor JK.”

Kelly is not completely done with treatments for the cancer. He still has four rounds of radiation to finish. Once the radiation is complete, it will take some time to see how Kelly responded to the treatment.

This is not the first time Kelly has battled cancer. In 2013, Kelly battled oral cancer in which he underwent surgery to treat the disease.

In the Instagram picture it is apparent that the treatments are taking a toll on Kelly’s body. Sammy Watkins, whom the Bills drafted with the fourth overall pick in the 2014 Draft, paid a visit to Kelly when he first touched down in Buffalo.

Kelly was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2012. He holds almost all of the franchises passing records and played for the Bills from 1986-1996.

This wrapped up in time for Jim’s annual Celebrity Classic.  The event  is always held the following Sunday & Monday after Memorial Day. Over 50 celebrities, come together from the sports and entertainment industry for a memorable weekend.

The VIP Gala is Sunday and over 1,000 people are in attendance. It includes a Chinese, Silent and Live auction with some of the most unique sports memorabilia. There will also be food stations, live entertainment and a program filled with excitement.

Each foursome is paired with a celebrity golfer and at the Gala we offer a celebrity draft which gives all foursomes the opportunity to bid on a specific celebrity to golf with on Monday. For more information visit his website.
