Thought and hoped he'd beat it! :(

 

Sad news for the Snooker world. A great player and a real fighter.

 

What a tragedy for his wife and little girl.

 

RIP Paul

 

Bit of an eye opener; he was only a little bit older than me! :scare:

Poor guy! My sympathies to his family.... just looked up on the net and found the following...

 

Neuroendocrine cells are cells which show some of the features of nerve tissue and some of the features of glandular tissue. Neuroendocrine tumours can occur in various parts of the body and a number of different tumours of neuroendocrine cells may develop in the pancreas. These include insulinomas, gastrinomas, VIPomas and non-functioning neuroendocrine tumours. All these tumours are very rare - for example, insulinomas are the commonest but only one person in every million will develop an insulinoma in any one year. The average age of onset for these tumours is between 50-60.

 

The BBC item says he had dozens of them... :scare:

 

RIP.
