A very minor case of serious brain damage

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/22946026 ![]() Legendary Formula 1 commentator Murray Walker has been diagnosed with cancer. The 89-year-old said he had a form of lymphatic system cancer, which was diagnosed during tests after a fall in which he broke his pelvis last month. "They've caught it incredibly early. It's treatable, the doctors say my condition is mild and I'm very hopeful," Walker said. Walker is to have a programme of chemotherapy over the next few months in an attempt to cure the disease. He has cancelled his plans to attend the British Grand Prix over the weekend of 28-30 June. I was pretty shocked when I read this; I (and many others) grew up with Murray Walker's commentary. However, there is some relief in the fact that it was identified early; I hope it allows him to recover. |
