There's no word on when he'll begin a rehabilitation assignment or anything of that nature yet, but this is still tremendous news.Liam Hendriks posts incredible update on social mediaLiam Hendriks shared the monumental update on Instagram:&quot;These past 5 months have been both the quickest and slowest of my life. Being able to ring this victory bell has been one of the most emotional things I’ve ever done. I cannot thank my team of doctors and nurses enough for coming up with the best medical plan for me. No words can express the gratitude I have for them saving my life.&quot;Liam Hendriks took to Instagram for a major updateHe continued:&quot;To my wife: You came to every single appointment. You held my hand every step of the way. You were my voice of confidence and always made sure I felt loved and safe throughout it all. I love you.&quot;He finished:&quot;To family, friends and fans: Your support kept me going. You kept me in the right frame of mind to beat this. Your encouragement made a bigger difference than you will ever know. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.&quot;Survival rates for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma vary, but overcoming it in this short of a timeframe is nothing short of spectacular. The White Sox haven't gotten off to an incredible start thus far in 2023, so they could use their reliever back soon.
