'My only regret is that I let it go unchecked for 3 months'

Speaking to Lauren and Steve from the #YouMeBigC podcast, Newcastle Falcons' Johnny Williams discusses his testicular cancer diagnosis for the first time:

"It's one of those things that you never think its gonna be you, but in my case it was," said the 23-year-old.

"Because of my lifestyle, being an athlete, caring about my diet, caring about my health... Yeah, I just never thought I'd get [cancer] really.

"My only regret is that I let it go for three months, because that may have been the difference between having chemotherapy and not."
