After Forever drummer André Borgman who was diagnosed with cancer earlier in the year, has written the following message on the band's official web site:

Hi to all of you..,

since I promised to keep you posted about my condition and it's progress, here is another update for you.

I have been to the hospital yesterday for my results of the total body scan. The total body scan shows us still a few deviations in both lungs. Therefore I cannot be operated and we have to wait what will happen with those deviations. They aren't necessarily cancer cells, they can also be scar tissue. My doctor also told me that in 90 % of all the cases they do get to operate the deviations proves to be scar tissue.

The doctors will keep me under close observation for the next 5 years. And if something does happen and the cell do get active, they can act immediately.

But still the best news is: I feel very well and strong and I hope to be performing again as soon as possible! First I have to see if my condition is good enough to play a whole show. The will to play again with my buddies on stage in front of you people is very big, so we'll see!

Best wishes and see you all soon,
André
