Trevor Nelson brain tumour diagnosis and recovery

Overview

Broadcaster Trevor Nelson recently shared that he is recovering from a brain tumour following a period of medical leave. Nelson explained that the diagnosis and subsequent “very serious surgery” necessitated a hiatus from his BBC Radio 2 and Radio 1Xtra duties earlier this summer.

Following his operation, Nelson reported feeling “great” and “energised” as he began post-operative treatment and resumed physical activities. He has since returned to his two-hour show on BBC Radio 2, describing the experience of his illness as feeling like he had been ‘hijacked.’ While he missed the Radio 2 in the Park event, he is scheduled to resume full-time broadcasting duties on September 28.
