Ireland AM TV Chef Joe Shannon diagnosed with terminal cancer

TV Chef from Ireland AM Joe Shannon has shared that his cancer has returned and this time it is terminal.

He was originally diagnosed with cancer of the bowl in 2021 following a blockage in his intestines. It was then discovered that this cancer had already travelled to his liver which was then treated and he returned to Ireland AM a few months later.

However the cancer has now returned and he has been told it is terminal. He said: "They ideally would've liked to do surgery and chemotherapy to take the tumour out, but because of all the complications I had previously, surgery was ruled out."
