Beastie Boy Adam Yauch aka MCA, has given an update on his cancer.
Last month he announced he had cancer of the preaortic gland and lymph node and had to postpone the group’s upcoming live dates. Updating the website, the rapper said:
“I’m about a week-and-a-half out of surgery now and rapidly recovering from it,” he wrote. “I haven’t taken any of the pain meds, which supposedly speeds along the healing process, or should I say, taking them slows it down. I’m pretty well detoxed from the anaesthesia that they pumped me up with to keep me under for all that time. That took several days to get out of my system. My neck and jaw are still pretty stiff from the surgery, but it gets better everyday. Had the stitches out this past Monday (August 3) so things are moving along.”
Everyone at Crossfire wishes him the best as he continues his treatment.
