Longtime SEC commissioner Mike Slive received great news from MD Anderson Cancer Center Wednesday, according to Rick Karle of FOX 6 WBRC in Birmingham, Alabama.

Slive was diagnosed with prostate cancer prior to his retirement in 2015. Karle took to Facebook about the chat he had with Slive this afternoon, who said that doctors told him no more chemotherapy treatments are in store for him following his six-month check-up. Here’s Karle’s post:

I have great news that former SEC commissioner Mike Slive shared with us as he flew home today from Houston: Following his 6-month check-up at MD Anderson Cancer Center, his doctors have given him the all clear for the time being and told him that no more chemotherapy treatments are in store. Mr. Slive contracted prostate cancer some three years and has battled valiantly. As a fellow cancer survivor I offer him my best. Please leave an encouraging comment for not only one of the most powerful men in college athletics, but a family man who calls Vestavia Hills home!

After serving for 13 years as commissioner for the most dominant conference in college athletics, Slive retired June 1, 2015, giving way to current commissioner Greg Sankey. Initially, Slive was set to retire July 31, 2015, but he moved it up to June 1.

“I have been blessed in more ways than I can count and I will have as much passion for this job on my last day as I did on my first,” said Slive upon his retirement announcement. “I consider my health situation a temporary detour in a remarkable road that has allowed me to meet amazing people, experience incredible events and celebrate historic victories. I will relish my final year in this position and look forward to being the biggest fan of the SEC for many years to come.”

During his time as commissioner, SEC revenues increased from $96 million to $310 million, and the SEC Network was successfully launched. That paved way for programs to receive over $40 million in distributions from the conference.  At the time of Slive’s retirement announcement, the SEC won 67 national championships during his tenure as SEC Commissioner.
