Blink-182’s Hoppus says chemothera­py ‘is working’

-

Blink-182 rocker Mark Hoppus offered uplifting news about his battle with cancer, tweeting Monday that the “scans indicate that the chemo is working!”

Hoppus, 49, revealed his cancer diagnosis last month, saying he had been undergoing chemothera­py for three months at that point.

In Monday’s Twitter post, Hoppus described the new update about the chemothera­py scans as “the best possible news.”

The bassist and singer said he will continue receiving treatment for months, and vowed to “keep fighting.”

Blink-182, which formed in 1992, is known for hits such as “All the Small Things” and “Adam’s Song.” Hoppus is the lone founding member of the Grammy-nominated rock band who is still part of the group.
