TWISTED SISTER's Jay Jay French Reveals Cancer Scare
13 June 2018TWISTED SISTER’s guitarist Jay Jay French revealed in a new interview that he had contracted prostate cancer, but he's certain he has beaten the disease.
Speaking with Dean Delray on the comedian’s Let There Be Talk podcast, French proclaimed, “I'm a prostate cancer survivor. I was diagnosed in March and I had an operation in April, and they tell me I'm cured.”
French, who is 65 years old, said that because of his family history, he and his doctors have been on the lookout for the disease for some time.
“They've been watching me for 15 years,” he noted, “because my father died of it ... in '84. And then starting in 2004, they started watching me carefully, and my brother carefully, and we knew this wasn't a matter of 'if'; it was a matter of 'when.’
“So when [I was] finally diagnosed ... I had to deal with it,” French continued. “[I] had to proactively deal with it. ... I went in the hospital and had it removed."
