Apparently Eddie does not have cancer, but has agreed to take part in a trial to prevent cancer (Eddie being a chronic smoker and all).
The following is a quote taken from the Van Halen news desk which can be found at http://www.vhnd.com/
quote:
"Hospital: Eddie Does Not Have Cancer
May 30, 2000 - Doctors from the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston said today that reports of Eddie Van Halen having cancer are wrong.
"There is some inaccurate information out and about
... Let me confirm that he does not have cancer," said spokeswoman Jane Brust to Reuters.
Brust said that Eddie had visited the hospital for a
thorough examination and was found not to have cancer. She confirmed the report from Van Halen's
official web site that Eddie had decided to take part in a clinical trial to prevent cancer. My apologies to Eddie, his family and friends, and the visitors to this site for helping to spread false information. I was told of the treatment last Thursday and decided to keep it to myself out of respect for Eddie and his family. When the news broke on radio and MTV.com the next day, there was no need for me to sit on it any longer. Now I wish I had." |
That is the latest report, and thank god the original reports were not true. |
