Sad memories of others are brought back with each loss and it takes a while to find the good ones again. But that wasn''t my reason for posting. If John Hartson wins his battle it will give so much hope and strength to others who are fighting as well as being the result we all want for him and his family.

Mister Chops 7 Posted January 3, 2010 Yeah, he''s obviously lost a lot of weight but he looks fitter now than when he played for us. Good to see him and he''s not a bad pundit either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jak G 0 Posted January 3, 2010 [quote user="Herman "]On ITV now.Looking much healthier. Good on you John[Y][/quote]Yes he does look much healthier now and alot skinnier looks like he''s lost a good stone or two but I guess that would be expected with all the chemo. Hadn''t realised how serious his was and that it had spread to his lungs and brain glad to see him on the recovery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
