Seven-time Olympic medalist Shannon Miller is pregnant with her second child, due at the end of June. (She hasn't found out the gender yet, but is hoping to).
Miller had chemotherapy and surgery for a rare form of ovarian cancer just two years ago, so this baby news is especially exciting for her and her husband, John Falconetti. Their son, Rocco, turned three in October. She wrote about her pregnancy and cancer journey for espnW.com. It's touching and inspiring -- and definitely worth reading. (Disclosure: I also work as an editor at espnW, but that doesn't change the fact that I find her story touching).
