Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton has revealed that he has beaten cancer.
In a new interview with BackstageAxxess.com, Tom spoke about the recurring illness.
“I'm feeling really good! I’m cancer free as of 5 days ago. (Editor’s note: this interview was conducted on Wednesday November 14, 2012). I had it 2006 and had it again in 2009,” explained Tom. “The doctor who treated me in 2009 said ‘Listen, I can help you in a way that is going to preserve your way of life, but you’re going to have to come in here a lot afterwards for a long time!’ I was completely fine with it and I said sign me up! I go in there about every 2-3 months. I get looked at by having the doctor put a scope down my throat. It’s a nerve racking process but I don’t have to worry about it for another couple of months and I’m feeling great!”
Hamilton’s interview was focused on promoting Aerosmith’s new album, “Music From Another Dimension,” and current tour across North America.
