What Happened To Travis T Bone Turner? The Bone Collector Is On A Wheelchair

The biopsy of Travis T-Bone Turner was done. Ten days later, he received the devastating news that he had been diagnosed with fibrosarcoma, a rare kind of cancer that spreads swiftly.

The sole option for removing the tumor was surgery. The reality star also disclosed that he has been through two different types of difficult chemotherapy and has been using a wheelchair.

Travis posted updates to his Facebook and Twitter fans.

He admitted that, as per the claims made by Distractify, he asked the ER doctor about a grape-sized knot on his right thigh while seeking treatment for an infected tick bite last July.

By the middle of August, the knot had expanded to the size of a golf ball. T-Bone underwent an MRI after the screening, which identified several tumors and indicated the need for a biopsy.

In his tragic disclosure, Travis T. B. Turner described his tumor as a rare type of sarcoma cancer called fibrosarcoma. Sarcoma is a general term for malignancies of the bone and soft tissues.

The American reality star described how his friends and family helped him get through it. It was even worse news when physicians discovered a 9-millimeter nodule on the left lung, which may or may not be cancerous.

He immediately started getting two different kinds of chemotherapy, five days in a row every three weeks. According to The Focus, the operations benefited his lungs to a certain extent.

Turner had a sarcoma in his right lower leg, but when it came time for surgery to remove it, the tumor and bone in his leg had grown together and prohibited the tumor removal. As a result, he was forced to amputate his legs above the knee.
