Chris Hoy admits ‘it’s been an unimaginable year’ amid terminal cancer

Olympic legend Sir Chris Hoy has said “it’s been an unimaginable year” amid his cancer.
In October, Chris revealed his cancer is terminal and he has two to four years to live. Chris’ wife Sarra Kemp was also diagnosed with “very active and aggressive” multiple sclerosis just weeks after he was told he had cancer.
The six-time Olympic cycling champion, 48, revealed in February that he was being treated for cancer.
Now, he’s updated fans on how his treatment is going.

Chris Hoy shares health update amid terminal cancer
A scan last year showed a tumour in his shoulder. However, a second scan then found the main cancer was in his prostate. The cancer has since spread to his pelvis, hip, ribs and spine.
Speaking to Sky News Sport, Chris has said in an update: “I’m doing well. I’m in the best shape I’ve been in in over a year. I’m physically not in any pain at all. Treatment has worked really well. Everything is stable. I couldn’t have responded better to the treatment available.
I’m very grateful. It’s been an unimaginable year.
“I’m very grateful. It’s been an unimaginable year. 18 months ago, if you had told me this was coming up, you couldn’t have imagined it. That’s life, isn’t it? You get curveballs. It’s how you deal with it. You make a plan and you move forward.”
He added: “I’m so lucky to have genuinely amazing people around me, from family, friends, medical support, the general public you have really propped us up and lifted our spirits. I feel very fortunate in that respect.”
