Blink-182's Mark Hoppus Says He's Undergoing Chemotherapy for Cancer: 'It Sucks and I'm Scared'
Blink-182 bassist Mark Hoppus took to social media Wednesday to reveal that he is undergoing chemotherapy saying, It sucks and Im scared, while adding that he feels hopeful and expects to be back on tour when hes cancer-free.
Earlier in the morning, Hoppus had alarmed fans with a photo he posted on Instagram, and then quickly deleted, of himself sitting in what appeared to be a hospital room with the caption, Yes hello. One cancer treatment, please. Many hours later, the 49-year-old rocker put a stop to the guessing game with a text statement that made explicit exactly what hes been going through, and for how long.
For the past three months Ive been undergoing chemotherapy for cancer. I have cancer, Hoppus wrote. It sucks and Im scared, and at the same time Im blessed with incredible doctors and family and friends to get me through this. I still have months of treatment ahead of me but Im trying to remain hopeful and positive.
Cant wait to be cancer free and see you all at a concert in the near future, he added. Love to you all.
