Former UFO Bassist Pete Way "Slowly Getting His Energy Back" After Cancer Scare
May 16, 2014, 10 years ago
Former UFO bassist Pete Way has issued the following health update:
Thankfully I have now finished my 38 days of radiotherapy for prostate cancer and very slowly getting my energy back. I'll get the result as to whether it's worked in a couple of months so it's a waiting game now. Praying it has. I'm still on hormone therapy and I can't wait to stop that so I can get back to my normal shape and size. I would like to thank all the staff at the Radiotherapy Dept at Poole Hospital in Dorset for being so kind and efficient. The ambulance drivers at E-Zec who carted me back and forth each day were superb and so helpful at this difficult time. But most of all I would like to thank you, my fans, for your endless love and messages of support. I'm not sure I could have done this without you. Whenever I got down and feeling miserable for myself I would read your messages and it would, without exception, lift my spirit. Thank you all so much. Provided I'm given the 'all clear' in a couple of months I'll be going flat out to release my new album Walking On The Edge and get back on the road where I belong. Watch this space! Love you guys."
Walking On The Edge is being mixed by celebrated producer Mike Clink (GUNS N' ROSES, METALLICA, WHITESNAKE, MEGADETH) and is expected later this year.
