Ethan Zohn Diagnosed With Cancer

Ethan Zohn, the winner of Survivor:Africa has been diagnosed with Cancer.

Last week, Zohn was disagnosed with a rare form cancer called CD20-positive Hodgkin's Lymphoma; he began chemotherapy on Friday.

"This is the ultimate game of Survivor," Ethan told People, "and there's really only one outcome, and that's to win. There's no other option."

Doctors found a swollen lymph node under his left clavicle and a subsequent CT scan revealed a mass on the left side of his chest.

A form of cancer that can yield a 90 percent success rate, Hodgkin's disease affects the body's lymphatic system. Five percent of Hodgkin's patients suffer from the same strain as Zohn. Treatment includes an intense three-months of chemotherapy.

Currently dating Suvivor: Amazon winner Jenna Morasca, Zohn travels the world with his Grassroots Soccer charity as an advocate for HIV/AIDS awareness and funding.
