‘Survivor’ winner: cancer is worse

“No one was expecting this,” Ethan Zohn says in his online video diary. “Hodgkin’s is one of the most curable cancers out there, so you can imagine I was completely shocked, and floored, and speechless.”

Zohn, who won the hit reality show’s third season, was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma in April.

Despite the news, the 35-year-old says his hopes are high despite the likelihood that he will need chemotherapy or radiation treatment.

Zohn says it is a blessing that he can help in “educating, raising awareness and erasing the stigma associated with cancer.”
