November 5, 2013, 11 years ago
This past June, DEF LEPPARD guitarist Vivian Campbell announced he had been diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma - a type of cancer originating from white blood cells - and had since undergone numerous chemotherapy treatments throughout the summer.
Campbell has just checked in with the following health update:
"For anyone who gives a toss, after doing another PET scan and all the other follow up tests, then getting a second opinion etc., I'm officially in remission from Hodgies. That's the good news. The bad news is: I no longer have an excuse to not go to the gym."
