A beloved Rhode Island traffic judge, known for his unique and loving personality in the courtroom asked for prayers as he revealed he had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
Judge Frank Caprio, 87, star of the reality TV show “Caught in Providence,” said he wasn’t feeling well during his birthday in November and went for a checkup.
“The report is not good,” Caprio said in a video shared earlier this week. “I have been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, which is a dangerous form of cancer.”
Caprio shared that he is fine, thanks to the medical care he received and prays their services will help him.
“I am being treated by a wonderful team of doctors, both here in Rhode Island and at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, Massachusetts,” said the Chief Justice Emeritus. “I pray that God guides their minds and hands in treating me.”
Caprio served as the chief judge of the municipal court in Providence, Rhode Island until his retirement this year.

Caprio said she was prepared for the battle she faced when she began treatment for the disease.
“I know it’s a long road, and I’m fully prepared to fight as hard as I can.”
He asked his fans to pray for him during his treatment.
“I ask each of you, in your own way, to pray for me. I need the power of prayer, which I believe in addition to the medical treatment I receive is the most powerful weapon to help me survive this situation.”
