mogs1968 Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 I just heard this on the radio, she is a fighter.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
south inch Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Come on Elena you can beat this. I remember you on a TV feature helping your dad with his English explaining the difference between Mars the planet and Mars bars. All the best keep fighting, as we say in Perth "guid folk are scarce". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOODLUM65 Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 This lassie has been dogged by illness for a long time, which prevented her from reaching her potential. Whether that was down to her present illness or not who knows. Just feel for the girl. Her well being is more important than any tennis career. Hope her treatment goes well. Everyone knows someone who is "touched" by cancer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cagey Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 This lassie has been dogged by illness for a long time, which prevented her from reaching her potential. Whether that was down to her present illness or not who knows. Just feel for the girl. Her well being is more important than any tennis career. Hope her treatment goes well. Everyone knows someone who is "touched" by cancer. Has previously retired from tennis. I am sure she will get through this. Best wishes lass.

HOODLUM65 Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Has previously retired from tennis. I am sure she will get through this. Best wishes lass. Yes. Had known she retired.

AthensSaint Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Being the daughter of Sergie, it's a given that the whole St Johnsone family will be supporting her. Best Wishes on your recovery Elena. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Das Rave Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Reports in todays papers stating that she was born near Chernobyl and may have been exposed to higher than usual doses of radiation. This coupled with her previous illness (auto immune liver condition) may have caused the cancer. Hope the diagnosis was early and the prognosis is good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
