One of the founding members of the iconic Blink-182, Mark Hoppus, has just revealed he is undergoing chemotherapy for cancer.
Via his Instagram story Blink-182 bassist, 49-year-old Hoppus has revealed that he has been undergoing chemotherapy for cancer over the last three months.
“I have cancer. It sucks and I’m scared, and at the same time I’m blessed with incredible doctors and family and friends to get me through this,” Hoppus stated.
Finding out Mark Hoppus has cancer almost hits the same as finding out a parent has it. Blink raised most of us. Fuck cancer man.
