Sir Chris Hoy , the Olympic cycling icon, has disclosed that he has a life expectancy of "two to four years" after being diagnosed with terminal cancer.
He said he had been "given enough time" to come to terms with his illness, but reflected on tough conversations with his children. After Hoy started chemotherapy, his son Callum asked if he was going to die, and Hoy told his son that no one lives forever but he hoped the treatment could help him “be here for many, many years."
