Iron Maidenin laulaja Bruce Dickinson sai syöpädiagnoosin viime vuoden loppupuolella (Soundi uutisoi asiasta täällä). Rankan ensimmäisen hoitojakson onnistuneesti suorittanut solisti on luonnollisesti edelleen kaukana ”parhaasta iskusta”.

– Bruce on jo toipumaan päin. Tuskat ovat helpottamassa ja turvotus on laskemassa, mutta tiedämme silti vasta viikkojen kuluttua, ovatko kaikki syöpäpesäkkeet hävinneet, yhtyeen manageri Rod Smallwood sanoo.

Smallwood kirjoittaa Facebookissa seuraavasti:

”Bruce has asked me to thank everyone for their tremendous support and kind wishes. He has been extremely touched and encouraged by the genuine and affectionate response from our global family of Maiden fans.

Radiology is cumulative and continues to build in the body for around three weeks after treatment, so even though Bruce’s seven-week course is completed, he’s had a long period of considerable pain and discomfort. He is happily now starting to recuperate and the pain will continue to abate and the swelling to reduce for the next couple of months at which time he will be able take an MRI scan. It is not until then that we will have full confirmation that the cancer has been completely destroyed. However, prognosis continues to be extremely good and everyone is optimistic for a full recovery. Following the scan, we will officially update you on the band’s official website at the appropriate time, probably in late May. After that, it will take a few more months for Bruce to get back to full fitness. Naturally, the rest of the band are totally supportive and Maiden’s plans will be determined by Bruce’s progress.

Please continue your positive thoughts. They are very much appreciated.”
