Bruce McAvaney reveals he is battling leukaemia
BRUCE McAvaney, Australia’s leading sportscaster, has cancer.
McAvaney, turning 64 this year, revealed to
The Advertiser he was fighting leukaemia. But the Seven Network stalwart was quick to point out he was “living a complete life”.
“It is quite strange to say I have leukaemia because I feel well,” McAvaney said, although he did say the illness was partly behind his decision to
quit calling the Australian Open tennis.
“Look it could be very serious,” he said of the Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia, or CLL, a type of blood cancer. “It could jump out of the ground at any moment. I don’t expect it will. But I’m living a complete life with no restrictions.”
