Ron Darling declared his successful fight against cancer and his return to the Mets booth.

Ron Darling couldn’t tell his father.

 

That’s the first thing the SNY analyst thinks about when he recalls his fight with thyroid cancer a year ago that kept him out of the booth for nearly two months.

 

“It was strange. My dad was very sick [with cancer, too], so I couldn’t really tell him because he was really struggling,” Darling told The Post while in Florida with his parents.

 

“So, I didn’t want to tell him what I was going through. So, I held it for a long time because I wanted him to take care of himself and not worry about his firstborn son. He has recovered and is doing unbelievably, so then I was able to tell him and he was able to help me and my entire family get through it.
