I came across the nice write up about Yuvraj Singh, source unknown. found it worth sharing. specially for those who are abusing and mocking him.. Would like to quote something Yuvrajs father said.. With Yuvi, before the World Cup it [cancer] was detected and I knew that because he was vomiting blood. I told him we should get a check-up, because his grandpa went through the same thing. But he didn’t listen to me, because he heeded his mother’s advice. Then, he was selected to the World Cup team, and I told him to skip it. That time, the cancer was very small, like a marble. That time, he took me aside and he told me, this is our dream, and I’m to win this world cup for you and for Sachin [Tendulkar]. And if I die doing this, I just want to make sure I do it with the cup in my hands. And something Harsha said.. As India inched closer to a second World Cup victory, a giant tumour, eventually 15cm x 11cm x 13 cm was growing within Yuvraj and pressing against a lung and artery. He couldnt sleep, he was throwing up, he was constantly breathless, and he was winning Man-of-the-Match awards. The doctors told him afterwards that he could have died of a heart attack because the artery was being squeezed - and no one would have known he had cancer .. Were there pictures of him desperately trying to get up from under five or six bodies piled on him in celebration because he could no longer breathe? Do I remember that battle cry after the quarter-final against Australia in Ahmedabad? Why was he going on about wanting to do it for Sachin? For all those people out there abusing, mocking, trolling Yuvraj, This man has already given me many many reasons to love and respect him till eternity!!!
