Sir Bobby’s Tumour Shrinking


By Aston

Town and England legend Sir Bobby Robson has revealed that the tumour on his lung has shrunk slightly following treatment. Writing for the Sunday Mail Sir Bobby also passed on his wishes to Spanish golfer Seve Ballesteros, who is currently suffering from a brain tumour.

Sir Bobby: "Seve is a big Barcelona fan and when I was manager there, I met him a couple of times when he came to matches.

"He had a lot of charisma and I was moved to send him an email of support last week when I heard his sad news.

"All I can say to Seve is to keep on fighting and everyone's prayers are with him. Every case is different, I know, but I'm still fighting 15 years after my first diagnosis.

"My latest scan has shown my tumour has shrunk after treatment, which I'm obviously extremely delighted about. I hope Seve can receive similarly good news.

"I have accepted what they have told me and I am determined to make the most of what time I have left.

"I am going to die sooner rather than later. But then everyone has to go some time and I have enjoyed every minute."
