Sorry to hear! Best wishes battling the cancer.
Listened a lot to them back in the late -80's, and especially remember "You Got to Fight for Your Right (to Party!)"

Wow, a genuine pain in the neck! I hope he beats it quick and easy. I wore out Ill Communication - what a masterpiece. Good luck, Adam!
