Heart’s Ann Wilson gives health update

A few months ago Heart postponed their tour dates announcing that the band’s vocalist Ann Wilson would start a cancer treatment. The singer said she underwent an operation to remove “something” cancerous. The doctors then advised her that she should undergo a course of preventive chemotherapy.

Now Ann gave a health update and said she is excited to tour again with the band next year.

Heart’s Ann Wilson health update

“Hello, everybody. Ann Wilson here. Now I know lots of you have been wondering how I’ve been doing, so I thought it’d be best if you heard this straight from me. I’m doing absolutely fine now, but it’s been, to put it mildly, a lot. Chemo is no joke. It takes a lot out of a person. And then there’s that two weeks of waiting around for test results, a form of mental torture. For anyone who’s been through that, I empathize big time.”

“Luckily for me, when the results finally came, they were the good kind, and so I’m excited to share with you that I’m now finished with chemo and I’m officially ready to get ready for the tour in 2025. There’s maintenance going forward, but I’m told the side effects are much less severe. The worst is over and I’m thankful for the efficacy of this poison, but it’s more than welcome to get the fuck out of my body now.

“I’m immensely grateful to everyone who prayed and sent me those good vibes. I’ve so felt your love. My story has a happy ending, due in part to early detection. My advice? Get checked regularly. I love you all, and I’ll see you very, very soon. There’s much to celebrate,” Ann Wilson said.

I'm a Brazilian journalist who always loved Classic Rock and Heavy Metal music. That passion inspired me to create Rock and Roll Garage over 6 years ago. Music has always been a part of my life, helping me through tough times and being a support to celebrate the good ones. When I became a journalist, I knew I wanted to write about my passions. After graduating in journalism from the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, I pursued a postgraduate degree in digital communication at the same institution. The studies and experience in the field helped me improve the website and always bring the best of classic rock to the world! MTB: 0021377/MG
