Former New York Rangers star Ron Duguay is currently in the hospital following a serious medical incident at his home last Friday. Duguay, 69, was found unconscious by his family, leading to an emergency transport via ambulance to receive care.

His daughter, Shay Thomas, provided updates regarding his condition. Doctors determined that Duguay suffered from severe dehydration, internal bleeding, and an ulcer. These complications are linked to the liver pressure resulting from his ongoing battle with Stage 4 cancer, a diagnosis he shared earlier this year.

Duguay is receiving blood transfusions and remains under medical observation. Despite the intensity of the situation, Duguay has maintained his typical humor, sharing a post about the teeth he lost during the fall.

This hospitalization adds to the difficult year for the former athlete, who has been pursuing both conventional and alternative treatments for his cancer. A fundraiser established by his family to assist with medical expenses has surpassed 160,000 dollars as of Tuesday. Supporters continue to monitor for further updates on his recovery status.
