GREAT WHITE guitarist Mark Kendall has revealed that he is battling stage four kidney cancer.
On Saturday (November 22),the 68-year-old musician, who formed GREAT WHITE in 1977 under the band's original name of DANTE FOX, took to his Facebook page to write: "Hello Friends! Just wanted everyone to know I was diagnosed with Stage 4 kidney cancer a few months ago. I wanted to wait to go public until I knew a little more about it.
"Just to give you an update the tumor has shrunk from 13 centimeters to 8, so I'm going in the right direction with my first scan.
"There isn't a cure for cancer but what I have is manageable.
"I have the best doctors in the world and one of them invented immunotherapy which is the treatment I'm on.
"I only had to do 3 radiation treatments which is a good thing! To be clear, I don't need any financial help but I'll take prayers & encouragement!
"I'm gonna fight this thing and be okay. People in my support group were diagnosed with my exact issue up to 20 yrs ago, so that is encouraging!
"Blessings All!"
