Survivor winner, Ethan Zohn has been battling a rare form of Hodgkin’s Disease and was finally starting to feel back to himself after intense chemo that left him hairless and always sick to his stomach.
“I was off chemo,” he says. “I was running up to seven miles” in preparation for November’s New York City Marathon. “I was happy, I was going out. I went up to Boston to see the family and was feeling great.”
On Aug 26th, his doctors called him for his post chemo results and he got the bad news,
“My cancer is back,” Zohn, 35, tells PEOPLE. “I have never been so scared in my life, for my life.”
“It was a complete punch in the face.”
Ethan family is of course really upset over this terrible news,
“My mom was obviously upset,” Zohn says. “My brothers – everyone’s upset. They can’t believe it’s what’s happening. But on the flip side, everyone’s positive and supportive.”
“You have to think positive. And you have to find the strength, which I will. And you have to rely on other people, which I will.”
This is such heartbreaking news for such a great guy. I wish him all the luck and strength in the world. I pray for amazing results with the new treatments he will undergo starting in December. I pray for his courage. Ethan Zohn is an amazing man, he will get through this.
