JOHN HARTSON has revealed he is winning his battle with cancer.
Earlier this year, Welshman Hartson was diagnosed with testicular cancer which had spread to his lungs and brain.
The 34-year-old underwent surgery and chemotherapy and has now been told the treatment has been effective.
The former Arsenal, West Ham and Celtic striker said: "We've all been through so much and to get the news from the doctors that the cancer is going from me is fantastic.
"I would like to thank every single person that has taken the time to either write to me, phone me or leave a message online.
"Your ongoing support is helping me through the battle of my life and is keeping my family upbeat in such terrifying circumstances.
"I'm not out of the woods yet, though this is my brightest day for a long time."
