England prospect Johnny Williams reveals cancer diagnosis on Instagram
By Josh Raisey
Newcastle Falcons centre Johnny Williams has revealed on Instagram that he has recently finished chemotherapy having been diagnosed with testicular cancer.
The 22-year-old said that he has faced a “slight bump in the road” but added that the “road is about to get easier from here” after finishing his last batch of chemotherapy.
However, he does not reveal on the post how long he has been battling cancer.
The centre, who played for England earlier this year against the Barbarians, also shared photos of himself in hospital alongside his team-mates, whom he thanked amongst others for being “extremely supportive in these circumstances”=.
Williams is very upbeat in his message, despite what must have been troubling times for him. This was his post:
