Very sad news, my mum has this and unfortunately its not cureable but it is treatable, generally offers the patient a pretty normal life on and off for 15-20 years, a good outcome for a 70 something but not such a good prognosis for a 30 something with a young family in the prime of life. Good luck though big man


Mate without getting into a debate about it this cancer is 99% curable.
It’s common to get in your 20s but the prognosis is generally excellent.

My good friend had it when she was 25. It returned when she was early 30s and again late 30s.
She’s now 52 and is fine.
I’m not undermining this at all but it’s not the death sentence that a lot of cancers are. In fact a Chest consultant friend told me some time ago that if you get cancer this is the one to have. Sounds terrible but it’s a fact.

I wish Sol all the best with the treatment.
My favourite player in recent years and a lovely guy.[/quote
From politicians to doctors.
Come on boys/girls leave the diagnose to the consultants.

Wish Sol Bamba the very best in his fight against non Hodgkin lymphoma. He was a great supporter of mine in the Prostate cancer walks and a delight when he has been at Skys studios. Wish you all the best big feller.
