Ronnie James Dio Health Update
Posted by Aaron Mayagoitia on 12.11.2009
How's he doing?
As previously reported, Rainbow/Black Sabbath/Heaven & Hell singer Ronnie James Dio was diagnosed with stomach cancer late last month.
Now Dio's wife/manager, Wendy, has issued the following update on the singer's progress as he battles against stomach cancer:
"Well, it has been a very exhausting month. After all the never-ending tests in Los Angeles, we flew to the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, and as soon as we arrived, we got a call from the MD Anderson Hospital that they had an appointment for us with the doctor we originally wanted, so we then flew to Houston to the clinic, and, of course, MORE tests, but Ronnie finished receiving his first chemo treatment on Wednesday, and all is going very well.
"I would like to thank Tony Martell from the T.J. Martell Foundation, Dr. Stuart Aaronson from Mount Sinai, Lindsay Brown and Mike Carden from Eagle Records, and our very own Dr. Sandeep Kapoor, for all your help in getting us into MD Anderson, and also our friends Geezer and Gloria Butler, who flew to Houston to be with Ronnie while he had his chemo.
"Ronnie and I are totally overwhelmed by the amount of well-wishes that we have received from friends and fans we are reading them all.
"Some make us laugh, some make us cry, but all of them are so filled with love that it gives us so much support and makes Ronnie even more determined to fight this battle and win.
"Thank you all for the positive energy and prayers."
Other signs of Dio's health improving include the bills for European festivals such as Sonisphere and Nova Rock, which are including Heaven & Hell (Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler & Vinnie Appice) in their rosters.
