Synopsis
An inspirational memoir focusing on Welsh international footballer John Hartson’s recent battle with cancer
In Please Don’t Go, former Celtic and Wales soccer star John Hartson documents his fight for life after being diagnosed in July 2009 with testicular cancer, which subsequently spread to his lungs and brain. Profoundly moving, John’s own story is interwoven with the poignant recollections of his pregnant wife, Sarah, as well as with extracts from his sister Victoria’s personal diary.
This remarkable book covers the five-week period during which John’s survival was most in jeopardy. Hartson’s truly remarkable account of how he has managed to overcome a very aggressive form of cancer will offer hope and courage to others affected by the disease. It is a touching and ultimately uplifting insight into of the bravery of the popular football hero, who has fought back to full health against all the odds.
