JAKARTA - Kibordis The Cure, Roger O'Donnell through his X account, spoke openly about his blood cancer. He shared his story in commemoration of the Blood Cancer Awareness Month in England.

The 68-year-old keyboardist admitted that he was ignorant when various symptoms began to be felt for months. His negligence caused blood cancer to be unavoidable.

September is a Month of Blood Cancer Awareness, so this is a good opportunity to have a dialogue about this disease. In September last year, I was diagnosed with a very rare and aggressive lymphoma. I ignored his symptoms for several months," wrote Roger O'Donnell via X, Monday, August 2.

O'Donnell also had to undergo treatment for the past eleven months under the handling of specialists and with a second opinion as well as suggestions from the team that had developed the drugs to give him.

I benefited from the latest science fiction immunotherapy and some of the drugs first used 100 years ago. The last phase of treatment is radiotherapy which is also one of the first treatments developed to fight cancer. I'm fine and the prognosis is incredible," he said.

O'Donnell also tried to invite people to fight cancer, identifying it as early as possible.

You have a much better chance, so all I have to say is, do a TEST, if you have the slightest suspicion that you may have symptoms, go ahead and have a check-up," he said.

If you know someone who is sick or suffering, tell them, every word can help. I also want to thank my doctor, all the rock stars, all the nurses and technicians, friends, family, and Mimi. Sometimes it's more difficult to be on the other side of this."
