Former No Prep Kings Champion Mike Murillo Diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer

Sometimes we get bad news drop from the racing community, and today’s news comes for someone that has already been through a lot in the last two years, both health wise and with his racing.

 

Mike Murillo has announced that he has stage 4 lung cancer. It’s a non-small cell lung cancer, and there is a mass not only on his lungs, but also on his lymph nodes and his spine.
