'Thank you for all the memories so far': 3 Doors Down frontman Brad Arnold, 46, announces stage four cancer diagnosis in emotional video
3 Doors Down frontman Brad Arnold has revealed he's been diagnosed with stage four clear cell renal carcinoma that has metastasised to his lungs. In a candid video shared on Wednesday, the 46-year-old vocalist spoke directly to fans from a park bench, saying he'd been unwell a few weeks earlier and went to hospital, only to receive the life-altering news. "Hey, everybody, it's Brad from 3 Doors Down. I hope you're having a great day today. I've got some not-so-good news for you today," he began. "So I'd been sick a couple of weeks ago, and then went to the hospital and got checked out and had actually gotten the diagnosis that I had clear cell renal carcinoma that had metastasised into my lung. "And it's stage four, and that's not real good." Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common form of kidney cancer, affecting the tubules that filter waste from the blood. According to Cancer Australia, the five-year survival rate for stage four kidney cancer is about 17 per cent, although outcomes vary significantly based on individual circumstances. Despite the bleak prognosis, the Mississippi-based musician maintained a powerful sense of faith. "You know what? We serve a mighty God, and he can overcome anything," he said. "So I have no fear. I really, sincerely am not scared of it at all." The diagnosis has sadly forced the Mississippi-based band to cancel their planned US summer tour with Creed. "It is gonna force us to cancel our tour this summer. And we're sorry for that," Arnold said, expressing his regret to fans. The Let Me Go singer ended the video by asking fans to keep him in their prayers, and referenced one of the band's most iconic songs. "I'd love for you to lift me up in prayer every chance you get," he said. "And I think it is time for me to maybe go listen to 'It's Not My Time' a little bit. "Thank you guys so much. God loves you, we love you." The band also shared a message from Arnold on social media, thanking fans for "all the memories so far". "Now, I believe ITS NOT MY TIME is really my song," the post read. "This'll be a battle so we need our prayer warriors! Thank y'all for being the best fans in the world. We love y'all! Brad." Fans flooded the comment section with words of love and support for Arnold, whose band shot to fame in the early 2000s with their debut single 'Kryptonite'. Creed frontman Scott Stapp was one of the first to respond, writing: "If anyone has the FAITH and STRENGTH to face this fight, it's YOU brother. You and your family are in my prayers daily. We can do ALL things through CHRIST. I think I can speak for all of us, we are lifting you up in prayer right now believing without doubt for your total healing! I love you bro…" Singer-songwriter Gavin DeGraw added: "May God bless you brother. Showing us how to conquer the darkness with light."
