Cancer in remission for wife of Bills DT Peko

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Kyle Peko's wife, Giuliana, announced Tuesday her cancer is in remission -- and earlier than expected.

Giuliana was diagnosed with stage three Hodgkin Lymphona in June, and was originally scheduled to undergo 12 sessions of chemotherapy over the course of the next six months.

However, just four treatments into her recovery, Giuliana received the news from her doctor that every patient and their family longs to hear.

"Yesterday she got a call from her doctor that the cancer is gone and nothing lit up," Peko said Wednesday.
