Message
from Johnnie Walker
Johnnie
Walker, who presents the drivetime show on 大象传媒 Radio 2, revealed
to his audience last night that he has cancer.
Johnnie
said: "Five weeks ago I was diagnosed with cancer in the form
of a malignant tumour in my colon.
"Obviously
at the time this was a great shock but I have now come to terms
with it and I am determined to face the challenge and do all that's
necessary to try and get well.
"Sadly
it's an all too familiar situation for so many people these days
and I'm beginning to truly understand the difficult times sufferers
and their families face.
"Normally
this is something one would like to keep private but with the need
to take some time off from my Radio 2 show and the effort involved
in making excuses for my absence, I decided it would be much easier
for me to just be honest about the situation.
"I'm
very lucky to have the support of a wonderful wife, close friends
and my bosses at the 大象传媒 who have been very understanding and helpful."
James
Moir, Controller, Radio 2, says: "We offer Johnnie every good
wish and will give him all the support he needs during his treatment."
Johnnie
Walker show, Monday to Friday, 5.00-7.00pm, Radio 2
