Behemoth frontman and lead guitarist Nergal's illness has been confirmed to be leukemia. According to the Polish celebrity news site TVP, the disease has advanced to the point where chemotherapy can no longer be an effective treatment and can only be cured through a bone marrow transplant.
Within the country of Poland, there are only 100,000 donors out of a population of 38,192,000. Nergal's fiance Doda has already donated her bone marrow but it's unknown if her bone marrow will provide a DNA match.
Other Polish artists are currently organizing concerts to help raise awareness of Nergal's condition although no artists or concert dates have as yet been announced.
Nergal is currently undergoing a multi-stage, months-long treatment at Gdansk Medical University Hospital and all Behemoth tour dates indefinitely canceled for the foreseeable future. http://www.metalunderground.com/news/details.cfm?newsid=59148
Not much I can say that hasn't already been said in here. Awful news, I hope the best for him but I can't realistically hold my hopes too high after hearing this. Not the best news to start my day off with
I went on MetalSucks and this hit me like a ton of bricks. Easily one of the coolest, nicest and most talented musicians I have ever had the pleasure of meeting and watching live....I wish nothing but the best to Nergal.
