Very misleading headline to be honest. Ronnie never refused chemo, because it never got to the point where he needed any. According to himself, the doctors found a cancerous legion during a check-up. After 7 days, the doctors informed him that it had not spread, so he had an operation to have it removed. He had decided beforehand that he did not want chemo, if needed, but I wonder if he wouldn't have changed his mind, if the doctors had informed him it was his only chance. As a father of baby twins, I'd imagine he'd be willing to do whatever it would have taken to improve his chances of surviving.
