Doug Aldrich, who currently plays guitar for The Dead Daisies, and previously worked with Whitesnake, Dio, and Revolution Saints, has issued the following update in regards to his battle against treatable throat cancer. Aldrich underwent a "very successful surgery" back in September.

Writing on The Dead Daisies' Facebook page, Doug issued the following update:

"Hi everyone… Hope all is great where you are! Some of you have been wondering about my treatment and recovery so… Four weeks of Radio treatment done and two to go! I’m doing better than expected… not losing weight and getting through it. I have a few issues but I feel blessed that it’s stuff I can deal with. Basically my neck is burnt badly from getting zapped everyday but it will heal up good when I’m done. Jaw is still pissed off at me and I’m tired a lot but otherwise I’m good. Thank you so much for all the prayers 🙏 and well wishes 🙌🏻 cause it really really has helped me a lot ❤️ Hope you guys are still enjoying the “Light 'Em Up” record, and I look forward to seeing you asap😊 Happy Holidays wherever you are!” - Love DA
