That's sad news. Also, could you bear in mind that those of us in advanced middle age might have some difficulty reading something so small as to be positively minute?

Hey I'm 23 and I couldn't even read that  Definitely hoping Tony beats this, if he can survive thirty years of Black Sabbath he can hopefully overcome his illness.  -------------

Since it had been diagnosed in an early stage, we can hope that Iommi is far from the tomb. |

You never know! It all depends on how physically healthy he is & he does appear to be. |

There're all sorts of lymphoma, whether early or not. Do hope he has no rapidly progressive lymphoma, and will get better soon, by cytotoxic agents or radiation. ------------- http://www.facebook.com/damoxt7942" rel="nofollow">

Hopefully the iron man recovers as well as my mom did. Lymphoma cancer is one of the most treatable, but you never know. I guess this puts a hold on the Black Sabbath tour.  ------------- Less can't mean more that doesn't make sense, more is more - Yngwie Malmsteen |

I was really overwhelmed with sadness when I heard this, knowing what a horrible disease this can be. My grandfather lost the battle with lymphoma; hopefully Tony won't. ------------- Property of Queen Productions...
