Our colleague and friend Nick Owen has undergone surgery for prostate cancer. Full story:
A scan before surgery had given him "a beacon of hope" as it showed the cancer was contained in the prostate and had not spread, the presenter said.
"She had to do a lot of things medically when I came home, to look after me, including having to give me an injection once a day for about a month - and she's got no experience of that, I've certainly got no experience of doing [it] myself or having it done by a non medical professional," he explained."Although I'm not exactly myself at the moment, I do feel a lot more like it," he said.
"For goodness sake, speak to a doctor about it and get it checked because if it's caught early - and I know it's a bit of a sort of medical cliché - but if it's caught early, you've got a chance. If it's left too late, you probably haven't."The presenter, who lives in Kinver, Staffordshire, said he could not wait to return to work.
