My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family and am wishing him a speedy and complete recovery!

Yikes! Sorry to hear that.

Fight the good fight, Chris!

Very, very sad to hear. I wish him a speedy recovery!

May Chris continue to be as indestructible as he appears.
He's given me a lifetime of inspiration, chills, tears, awe, and euphoria.
So sorry that he's got to endure this, and hopeful that he'll emerge, gracefully and triumphant, embodying the spirit at the heart
of his inimitable, singular sound - the one that knocked the music world off its axis, while revealing new sonic horizons, and redefining what rock music could be.

Well-spoken!
I wanted to try and say something like this earlier but I know I would end up quite emotional.

I believe Wayne Dyer had it and he is still healthy quite a bit down the road.

Thanks.
Nice to hear a success story, of someone who'd had the same illness.
Chris deserves only the best, for having given the world the same.

When he had his leg clot issue he was very impressed with the care he received in Phoenix. The next time he played PHX he thanked the Med staff from the stage. I would think he has also has excellent care this time around.

Best wishes in your treatment and recovery, Chris.

Well said. Thoughts and prayers to Mr Squire and his family.

My wife works at a Tucson company that specializes in fine tuning cancer treatment to the individual patient. They have an internal program that offers their diagnostic services to the friends and family of their employees. If anyone can get a message to Chris, she would be pleased to try and get him involved.
