NRL player, John Great, recently made an emotional plea to his doctors after asking, “Am I going to die?” Great has been battling a serious health issue for the past few months and has been in and out of the hospital for treatment.
Great’s health battle began in December when he started to experience severe abdominal pain. After being admitted to the hospital, doctors discovered that he had a rare form of cancer called pseudomyxoma peritonei. This type of cancer affects the lining of the abdomen and is often difficult to diagnose.
Since then, Great has undergone multiple rounds of chemotherapy and surgery to remove the tumor. Despite the treatments, the cancer has continued to spread and Great’s health has deteriorated. He has been in and out of the hospital for months and his condition has become increasingly worse.
The situation has taken a toll on Great’s mental health as well. In a recent interview, he revealed that he had asked his doctors if he was going to die. He said that he was scared and wanted to know what his future held.
Great’s plea is a reminder of how serious and devastating a health battle can be. It is important for people to be aware of the physical and mental toll that illness can take on an individual. It is also important for people to remember that there is help available for those who are struggling with their mental health.
Great’s story is an inspiring reminder of the strength and courage it takes to battle a serious illness. He has shown incredible resilience throughout his health battle and his plea is a reminder that no one should ever have to face such a difficult situation alone.
