Mark Hoppus says that he is determined to come out victorious in his battle with cancer.
The Blink 182 singer went public with his diagnosis last month. On Saturday he posted on Twitter: “Apologies if I’m oversharing but it’s so surreal to think that this week I’ll take a test that may very well determine if I live or die.Thanks to everyone for the positive thoughts and encouragement. I read all your replies and it means the world to me. Thank you. I’m going to beat this through chemotherapy or through bone marrow transplants, but either way I’m determined to kick cancer’s ass directly in the nuts. Love to you all. Let’s. Heckin. Go.”
Hoppus broke the news on June 23, posting a photo in a doctor’s office with the caption: “Yes hello. One cancer treatment, please.”
He followed that up with the statement: “For the past three months, I’ve been undergoing chemotherapy for cancer. I have cancer. It sucks and I’m scared, and at the same time I’m blessed with incredible doctors and family and friends to get me through this. I still have months of treatment ahead of me but I’m trying to remain hopeful and positive.Can’t wait to be cancer free and see you all at a concert in the near future. Love to you all.”
