Bleacher Report sports gambling analyst Troy Hermo lost his battle with cancer and died on Sunday, March 17.
From Tory Hermo’s X account, “This is Troy’s brother Alex. Troy sadly passed away while surrounded by family last night. On behalf of Troy, his wife Brennah, and the Hermo family I’d like to thank everyone for supporting, donating, and cheering on Troy through his battle with cancer. He loved all of you.”
In 2018, Troy Hermo was diagnosed with stage 4 Adrenal Cancer. As a result, he set up a GoFundMe to help offset expenses for a clinical trial and shared his story:
“When I was 24 years old, I was managing one of the fastest growing companies, dating in a new relationship, purchased a brand new car, and had everything ahead of me. When my first symptoms started to occur, the doctors assured me that it was just anxiety or my casual drinking on the weekends.
“They said I was young and needed to make better food choices.
“What felt like overnight, I gained 20 pounds in my stomach, broke out in severe rashes, and would shake unctrollably, so I demanded a CT scan.
“Two days later, I got the news. I was diagnosed with stage 4 Adrenal Cancer with an 8 1/2 pound tumor on my adrenal gland (the size of a Christmas ham), thus it needed to be removed immediately. After a 12-hour surgery, the incredible team at OHSU had succesfully removed the tumor, along with my adrenal gland, spleen, and kidney.”
