When Billy Stroh Sr. had an itchy throat, he initially thought it wasn't a big deal. A few weeks later, as the pain continued, his friends and family demanded he go to the doctor to get it all checked out. It turned out he had stage 4 throat cancer.
After a quick operation, Billy Sr. seems to be looking a lot better. While he's still battling cancer, one thing is for certain: He has an amazing support system.
It was just a normal day for the Stroh family, when suddenly they all looked up and saw a man they hadn't seen in over seven months: Billy Stroh Jr., an American Marine Corps hero who had been away on duty for far too long.
Billy Jr. had heard about his father's cancer, so he did everything he could to get permission to leave and visit his struggling dad just to let him know that he wasn't fighting this alone. And of all the people you'd want to fight by your side, a Marine should be on the top of everyone's list.
Everyone should get themselves screened for cancer if they ever feel something may be wrong. Even if you don't feel like anything is the matter, it's better to be safe than sorry, never ignore your symptoms!
With his brave son by his side, we're sure that Billy Sr. will put up the best fight anyone has ever seen! We're always happy to see one of our brave military men or women welcomed home, and while we wish this occasion was under happier circumstances, at least this family can finally be whole once again!
