Jersey and Amanda jam Nation. On this day, twelve months ago,
John Farnham underwent a twelve hour surgery in Melbourne to
remove a cancerous tumor from his mouth, along with the
reconstructive plastic surgery that follow it. Since then, John has
been in and out of rehabilitation care that's included eight
weeks of radiation treatment and supplementary surgical procedures as a

(00:22):
result of various complications and issues, including infections, that presented
over the past year.

Speaker 2 (00:27):
Yeah. Then last month in July, John, this is extraordinary,
wonderful news. John was formerly given confirmation by his medical
team that he is all clear of cancer.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
So to mark the anniversary of his initial surgery, John
Farnham has issued a statement. Let's read it because it's
just wonderful news. He said, I'm the luckiest man I
know right now. It's been a year since my first surgery,
and to be honest, I've lost count of how many
other procedures there's been since then. I'm sure someone's kept
track of them. Let's just say there's been a few.
But I'm home now and I'm very grateful and a

(00:58):
very happy man. I'm sitting here in my living room,
lapping up the attention from my beautiful wife Jill, my
boys Rob and James, and my mini schnauz are Edmund.
I only now, it's only now I can start to
appreciate and comprehend for myself how many messages of love
and support have been sent to me over the past year.
I don't know what to say other than thank you
so very much. It honestly means the world to me.

(01:20):
Thank you to everyone who took the time to write
and send a message. Today's a special day. I'm going
to market by having a pizza because I can, and
I can't wait to see what might be next on
the menu. Bring on twenty twenty four. This is brilliant,
brilliant news, wonderful news.
