Michael Sadler, renowned singer from Saga, provides fresh insights on his current health status
Michael Sadler, the frontman of the renowned Canadian progressive rock band Saga, has shared an update on his health following a successful operation to remove a rare form of muscle-invasive cancer. In a recent statement, Sadler aimed to allay fears and clarify his health status, stating that while his diagnosis is serious, it is not terminal nor incurable[1][2].
Sadler's announcement came after a post on July 12th, where he shared about the passing of his sister and the cancer in his family. The post, understandably, caused concern among friends, but Sadler has expressed his gratitude for the support from his fans and the role they played in helping clarify the situation[2][3].
Sadler's commitment is to set the record straight about his health status. He has noted that there are no further treatments available following his successful surgery, and he is now focused on living life to the fullest rather than pursuing additional medical interventions[1][2].
Despite the challenges, Sadler remains determined to continue his work and engage with his audience. Saga has currently paused all live performances due to Sadler's health situation, with his well-being being the top priority[2][3].
Sadler's rare muscle-invasive cancer occurs in only 3-5% of cases, as he noted in his statement. His brother, however, manages his leukaemia with a daily pill[1].
Sadler values his time with family and friends and is focused on staying healthy, reducing stress, and living purposefully. He has expressed a commitment to completing his musical projects and intends to make music as long as he is able[1][2].
