Navratilova on how she is passing time in hospital during cancer battle: “Lulu and Tennis”

Martina Navratilova is fighting cancer again as she recently revealed

The 66-year-old former tennis player had been diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010 and had overcome it. However, at the beginning of the year she announced that she suffers from double throat and breast cancer. The 9-time Wimbledon champion said in January: “This double whammy is serious but still fixable,"

"I'm hoping for a favourable outcome. It's going to stink for a while but I'll fight with all I have got.", said the 18-time Grand Slam champion

The Czech-American is already undergoing treatment and commented on Twitter how time flies during his hospital stay:
