(The Guardian) John Farnham out of ICU and ‘progressing well’ after cancer surgery, family says
John Farnham’s family have released a statement on the singer’s progress after his cancer surgery: John’s recovery from last month’s surgery for mouth cancer is progressing well. His medical team are very pleased with his progress over the past month. He was moved from ICU and into a general ward a couple of weeks ago. That in itself was terrific progress.

This week John has been transferred into a rehabilitation facility. Each of these steps means things are moving in the right direction and for that we are enormously thankful.

Our family is so very grateful to all the remarkable teams of Victorian medical professionals who have taken such good care of John. These outcomes are a credit to their dedication, skills and compassion.

We have received many thousands of beautiful messages via the weloveyoujohn.com.au website since it was launched. Being surrounded by this much love and support has meant the world to us all. Thank you.

That's a great sign, hopefully he recovers fully!

Get well soon, John. You truly are The Voice.

Get well soon, John. You truly are The Voice.

I hope he recovers too; cancer's a foul disease, not just for the sufferer but for their family too.
