The Daily Post recently wrote about  Joe Thompson, a football midfielder who just signed a one-month loan deal at Wrexham after beating cancer. Thompson was diagnosed in November 2013 with nodular sclerosis Hodgkin lymphoma, a rare form of cancer, underwent chemo and is looking forward to continuing his football career. The article explains the tough recovery that Thompson went through to re-start his career after treatment:

It has been tough to regain his fitness, but after putting in the hours he says he is finally ready to reap the rewards. It may be a cliche, but Thompson is the epitome of ‘what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger’."
