Luís Roberto on Domingão do Huck on July 5th Reproduction Sports journalist Luís Roberto participated this Sunday (5) on the program "Domingão com Huck" and commented on his cancer treatment. The disease was discovered two months before the World Cup, which made him step away from covering the event. In early April, the narrator announced that he would be absent from sports broadcasts to undergo medical care. He was diagnosed with a neoplasm in the cervical region, which is an abnormal growth of cells capable of forming masses or tumors. The journalist explained that the treatment has been taking place over the last two months. In total, he underwent 33 radiotherapy sessions and seven chemotherapy sessions. "Each of us can go through a challenge like this. In a routine exam, finding out that you have cancer and having to rush to undergo treatment, which is difficult", he commented. During the attraction, Luís Roberto thanked the "avalanche of affection" he received from friends, family and the "thousands of people who give you mental strength". "Gratitude is a word that, sometimes, we trivialize. But, at this moment in my life, and on such a special day, with the National Team playing in a World Cup qualifier, I need to say that gratitude moves me," he stated. At the end, the journalist left a message about the importance of psychological preparation during the medical process. “It is important that everyone is prepared to be strong, because mental health counts,” he concluded.
