Former WBIR Anchor Steve Phillips is asking for prayers as he is very close to dying. 

The former WBIR Sports Director and Anchor, was diagnosed with Glioblastoma multiforme, a form of brain cancer which means he had multiple malignant tumors, in October 2016.

WBIR says that just weeks before the diagnosis, he started dating the love of his life, Jane Morrell, a nurse who has remained by his side throughout his courageous battle with cancer. He called her his "Angel on Earth."

Morrell has kept WBIR updated on his progress, and this week, she shared devastating news.

On a recent trip to Duke, doctors told Steve and Jane that the tumors were still growing aggressively, and that the options for treatment have run out.

Jane says Steve is getting ready to go to his heavenly home and it could come in just weeks.

Such sad news.
