Billingsley's wife cancer-free, couple thanks Phillies

PHILADELPHIA -- All things considered, Chad Billingsley and his wife, Tiffany, are feeling incredibly blessed these days.

Wednesday night at Citizens Bank Park, they will show appreciation for everything good that has happened to them since March. While Chad has worked to return to the mound following a pair of right elbow surgeries, Tiffany has been quietly going through rounds of chemotherapy to beat a rare but aggressive form of cancer called gestational choriocarcinoma.

The couple happily reported that Tiffany has been clear of cancer since last month. She will finish her final treatments in a few weeks.
