Tony Iommi Issues Update
The Sabbath guitarist sends his thanks to fans and friends
Following the announcement earlier this week that he had been diagnosed with early stages of lymphoma, Tony has taken to his website to say thanks for the support and to reveal that he was looking forward to getting treated for the illness.
Here's the statement:
My fans, friends & colleagues -
I just want to say how overwhelmed I am with all your messages of support, thank you so much.
Well it's not what I wanted for Christmas, that's for sure, but now I can't wait for the test results to come in and get going with the treatment.
It's really good that the guys are coming over so that we can continue working on the album as things are going great in the studio.
Well, not much else to say at this time, so thanks again.
Bless you all,
Tony
