New York Dolls, partita la raccolta fondi a favore di Sylvain Sylvain malato di cancro

Il 29/04/2019, di Giuseppe Cassatella.

A Sylvain Sylvain, membro originario dei New York Dolls, è stato recentemente diagnosticato un cancro. Ha sta ricevendo un trattamento sanitario che sembra procedere con successo ma c’è ancora molta strada da fare. Per tale motivo è stato attivata una campagna, su GoFundMe, per la raccolta dei  fondi necessari per le cure .

Di seguito è riportato il messaggio condiviso da Sylvain Sylvain:

“Hi Everybody,

I know there has been some curiosity, speculation and, yes, rumor about why I haven’t been rampaging songs on Facebook or, more importantly, out on tour promoting my book, There’s No Bones In Ice Cream, and playing in a town near YOU.

First, the bad news: For about a year now, I have been battling cancer. Then the good news: I have an upcoming surgery with a great doctor that may do the trick. There will, however, be a somewhat long recovery period (at least a year). I have not been able to work since last year and have more surgery scheduled.

I love life! As hard as life has been to me these past two years, I want to live and I know with your love and support, I’ll have the best chance that I could ever have.”
