Gay Byrne, the legendary broadcaster has been diagnosed with cancer.

Gay told his Lyric FM listeners this afternoon that:
“I shall not be with our listeners on this day next week. Have to go to hospital this week…They think they may have discovered a bit of cancer in the prostate and they think it may have moved up into my back”.

“I’ve had the most wonderful, fantastic, robust, good health all my broadcasting life. It’s my turn now. Many, many people much worse off. Thank you for your good wishes,” concluded the 82-yr-old.

Gay had a heart attack in the past 12 months but recovered well.
