Rockband frontman Ginger Wildheart has revealed he has been given three years to live following a cancer diagnosis.
The singer, who fronts Newcastle rock band The Wildhearts, is suffering from a rare form of cancer called Mantle Cell Lymphoma, but said he has refused treatment.
His condition came to light during the band’s More Satanic Rites tour in December, when Wildheart was forced to take short breaks from stage due to severe pain.
“No misery please, positivity all the way,” he said, in a statement on social media. “I’ve lived the life of 10 men and will die with dignity.”
