On February 6, Toby Keith’s staff announced the passing of the country music legend on his official Instagram page. Keith died a year and a half after revealing that he was battling stomach cancer. However, over the last few months, the music singer has disclosed that he has made significant progress as he continues to receive treatment, even returning to the stage for a while.

“Toby Keith died quietly yesterday night, February 5th, surrounded by his family. He waged this war with dignity and courage. Please respect his family’s privacy during this time,” the statement read. Keith was only 62 years old. Keith released a video on Sunday, only two days ago, of himself on stage, holding up his guitar for the enormous throng in front of him as he took in the acclaim after performing for them. Heartbreaking.

Toby Keith said last month that he had made significant progress following being diagnosed with stomach cancer.Keith canceled his tour after confirming his condition in 2022, as previously reported by Mamas Uncut. “I’ve spent the last 6 months receiving chemo, radiation, and surgery,” Keith stated in his original statement from June 2022.

“I was diagnosed with stomach cancer last fall,” he told us. Thus far, so good. I need time to breathe, recoup, and rest. I’m looking forward to spending this time with my family. But I’ll see the fans sooner rather than later. “I can’t wait!” Then, over a year and a half later, Keith stunned fans by attending a celebration after the Oklahoma Sooners softball team won the NCAA championship.

Now he’s providing a more extensive update on his cancer struggle. “I’m feeling pretty good,” the 61-year-old country music artist told The Oklahoman. “I’m about eight weeks away from my last scan. So I expect the next time I look for that tumor to be even less — and I’ve just got one that’s shown up.” “Basically, everything is trending positively. With cancer, you never know what will happen, so you must be prepared.

But my goal is that I feel better and have more wind. And I’m thinking about bringing the band in and setting up, playing somewhere for two or three days to see if I can make it through two hours,” Keith said.And if he can play for two hours straight and still feel okay, Keith plans to “be out on the road this fall.”

However, as Keith approaches his 62nd birthday on July 8th, he has revealed that he is still taking chemo and immunotherapy treatments. The good news is that his cancer has “shrunk by a third,” and his blood tests continue to be normal. ”

They put oxygen into your bloodstream. They provide you with large levels of vitamin C as well as other vitamins and nutrients to help you feel better.And you may begin attempting to cure your body,” he continued, detailing how his therapies operate.”Now they’re attempting to fight where the cancer has backed up and says, ‘Oh, you’re fighting that tumor? “We’re going to remorph and turn into this type of cancer.” So, while (the cancer cells) are reorganizing, we’re trying to kill ’em with a different approach.”
