Poison singer Bret Michaels, 56, made a statement on his official website saying he has skin cancer and will have to undergo surgery to remove the tumor, which was detected after a recent biopsy.
“I’m going to have to undergo a procedure to eliminate skin cancer that was detected after a recent biopsy. I am in the hands of incredible experts who are positive for excellent results, ”said Michaels. In addition, the singer will have to undergo another surgery to resolve an injury to his right shoulder.
However, he promises that he will still fulfill his entire agenda in 2020 and “that this year will be incredible”.
Bret Michaels statement about his health:
“After a very recent kickoff to the new year, physical & MRI it has been brought to my attention that I have torn my right shoulder rotator cuff which would answer the question why it looks like a lump or bone was sticking out of my right shoulder. A little more complex”.
“I will also have to undergo a procedure to remove skin cancer that was detected after a recent biopsy. I’m in the hands of incredible specialists who are both positive for great outcomes. It may slow me down a bit at the beginning of the year, but if God willing I promise this year will be awesome.”
“Just a few less solo shows & special events until I get this all squared up. As always continuing great diabetic maintenance to keep on rocking in 2020! – Bret Michaels”
Poison will be part of a major joint tour alongside Def Leppard, Mötley Crüe and Joan Jett & The Blackhearts.
