61 year-old Robin Gibb, one of the founding members of legendary pop rockers the Bee Gees, is suffering from liver cancer it has sadly been revealed.
The singer had been previously hospitalised after suffering from bad stomach pains, requiring emergency surgery in Belgium last year. After again suffering from the stomach pains earlier this year, it has emerged that the star is actually fighting liver cancer, and was diagnosed some months ago.
After cancelling public appearances, a friend of Gibb’s family, who has been flying back and forth from America to be at his bedside, told the Mirror newspaper: “Robin is not good and there is a lot of concern for him. You can use your wealth to call in the best experts but sometimes no amount of fame, prestige and money can change things when it comes to cancer.
“But Robin is a strong character; he is a fighter and has been encouraged by all the online messages from his fans. Dwina [his wife] is doing everything possible and hasn't left his side. There will be difficult times ahead but Robin will never give up and his living family will make sure he has everything he needs. There is frustration ahead because Robin has always looked after himself. He doesn't drink, eats well and exercises daily.”
Stereoboard sends hope and thoughts to Robin and his family and we hope he can manage to make a full recovery.
