A very unpleasant disease indeed, whoever you are. Best wishes to the lad.

Just watching on Sky Sports News, Petrov has said that 'he's determined to beat it'. Our thoughts are with him
Pfffft.

I hope he can pull through this the same way Fab has his condition.

Well, it certainly isn't going to be the seemingly speedy miraculously-quick recovery Muamba seems to be on. Like Fab, always been a fighter on the pitch, and you hope that will stand him in good stead. Mate of mine got diagnosed with it about 6 months ago, and he's doing OK, having caught it early. Hopefully they've caught it early in Petrov. Good luck to him.

Think it was great of Martin, to have one made like it had been written in pen by him. Nice touch.

Seriously though, fingers crossed big time to anyone who has this. Thoughts and prayers with Stan.

Good to see him around, and in remission. Still, sad to see him that way :(

Feck me it's not nice to see him looking like that, but here's hoping his progress continues.
