Currently, he is undergoing chemotherapy in the Cancer Research Institute, Boston. Yuvraj’s father Yograj Singh told about his son treatment which is going in US by the doctor who had treated Lance Armstrong (Athlete) who was diagnosed by Testicular cancer in stage 3 in 1996.

Yograj said he is responding well to the treatment. It is been estimated that he would get back to normalcy in the month of May. His father feels that his treatment was delayed by two years. Yograj said if they had given consideration two years before when he badly coughed in his match then today’s situation wouldn’t be like this. The doctors said the tumor can be cured without surgery as it is in Stage 1. Chemotherapy will be done in the month of March, rehabilitation in April and he will be fit in May to play in the field. Recently, her mother Shabnam Singh from Boston said that his son is fine and he will be back soon.
