RJD In Hospital

[aMetalhead1966]

Anyone else hear about this....

Hope all is all right....anyone know?

[Faron]

Just heard about this, cancelled his European tour. No reason yet given to what is wrong!

[aMetalhead1966]

I read it yesterday and still have heard nothing...my hopes and prayers go out to Ronnie though...

[bangerdave]

I hope it is nothing major.

[heaven&hell]

Saw this on Blabbermouth today and I sure hope it's nothing serious.

 

We need to remember that the guy is pushing 70 and has a traveling musician for like 40 years and that can't be the healthiest way to live but again I hope it's nothing to serious and wish him a speedy recovery.

Here's an article that basically says what most are sayin'....

Definitely.

 

He's been burning the candle at both ends his entire career...hope he's alright.

I've also read that he only sleeps 3 to 4 hours a night.

RJD relax and Godspeed to a healthy life!

Still no official news of what's ailing Ronnie, at least I haven't heard anything.

 

Supposedly the rumor making the rounds @ the official Dio forum is that he might have had a stroke, but there hasn't been any kind of official announcement. I hope it's nothing that serious.

Oh God I sure hope it wasn't something like a stroke.

Then again I guess it wouldn't be to suprising how he burns the candle at both ends at his age.

Official word from Wendy Dio....Damn!! Kick its ass Ronnie!!!

Wendy Dio, the wife and manager of legendary heavy metal vocalist Ronnie James Dio (HEAVEN & HELL, BLACK SABBATH, RAINBOW), has released the following statement to BLABBERMOUTH.NET:

 

"Ronnie has been diagnosed with the early stages of stomach cancer. We are starting treatment immediately at the Mayo Clinic. After he kills this dragon, Ronnie will be back on stage, where he belongs, doing what he loves best, performing for his fans.

 

"Long live rock and roll, long live Ronnie James Dio.

 

"Thanks to all the friends and fans, from all over the world that have sent well wishes. This has really helped to keep his spirit up."

Hope he is ok. At least they caught it early.

Saw this on Blabbermouth. Very sad news but as Jez said hopefully it was caught early enough.

 

I hope and pray that he does indeed kill that dragon that is cancer so he can get back to rocking.
