Former CBS News Colorado sportscaster details fight with incurable disease: “I didn’t ask for this”

As luck would have it, the former sports broadcaster was matched up with a hematologist-oncologist at UCHealth named Peter Forsberg, the same name as one of the Colorado Avalanche’s greatest players. When they first spoke, McIntosh made a joke about his name, which Forsberg says he gets a lot. “More often than not there’s a comment that comes up around the name,” said Forsberg [associate professor of medicine at CU School of Medicine].
