This Monday, September 5, France 2 broadcast a new number of its show Ca begins today. Three guests met to talk about the theme “Virility, sexuality: when the disease affects men”. This is particularly the case of Jonathan, who burst into tears on the set under the influence of emotion.
The start of the school year for Ca begins today was not very encouraging. This Monday, September 5, Faustine Bollaert was once again at the presentation of a new issue whose theme was: “Virility, sexuality: when the disease affects men”. For the occasion, three recently ill people met to testify on the set of France Télévisions. This was particularly the case of Jonathan, in full remission from testicular cancer.
“I was hospitalized for several weeks. Even if there are good results for this type of cancer, the treatments are very very heavy. I had chemo Monday through Friday, three and a half hours a day. It turns out that I tolerated the chemotherapy very badly, I had a lot of infections, my immune system was at its lowest. I was more afraid of dying from chemotherapy than from the cancer itself.“. After this, already, heavy testimony, Faustine Bollaert asked Jonathan if he had lost his hair and his beard.
Suffering from testicular cancer, Jonathan burst into tears while telling his story
“Yes, I lost all the hair I had”. At that time, the production showed a photo of him in the hospital while he was undergoing treatment. Inevitably, the memories came to the surface and Jonathan burst into tears when he saw himself in such a physical state. “When you take care of yourself and when you wake up one morning realizing that you have plenty of hair and beard on your pillowyou understand that you really have cancer”.
A little later during the show, Faustine Bollaert announced to Jonathan that she had “a little surprise for him”. This was followed by a poignant magneto from his twin brother, who gave him a declaration of brotherly love. A new sequence rich in emotion during It starts today.
