Well that is awful news, especially given that he is only 42.

Re: Jonathan Hawkins Cancer Appeal
Sad news indeed. Hawkins was always quite an inspiration to the everyday man that you don't have to be born a chess prodigy and have the GM title in your early teens - he started from nothing and gradually worked his way up and up from the lowest leagues all the way to the top title (and even British championship to boot)
