Fortunately this type of cancer was treatable, and with the help of amazing doctors and nurses, and incredible support from family and friends, I was given a clean bill of health. I am officially cancer free. I'm excited to put this behind me and turn the page on this chapter of my life. Thank you all for the support! It helped more than you can know.\"\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A former safety at Notre Dame,&amp;nbsp;McCarthy was a member of the Irish for five seasons and served as a team captain in 2009.
