I have a feeling Dan will get through this. Here is a copy of a message sent on another group:
Today I heard on the radio, I think it was CBS News, that reported that Dan Fogelberg has cancelled his tours for the rest of 2004, due to prostate cancer. They also said he is seeking new treatment for that cancer, at Harvard. I went to the DanFogelberg.com website, and found a statement there by Dan, saying that this is really not a big deal, and he is NOT seeking treatment at Harvard, and he wants people to respect his privacy. However his tours are still cancelled. I want to ask this group, doesn't this deserve a little discussion? They say 1 in 4 men will get prostate cancer. Dan is now 53 years old. I have all his albums, he's certainly a very gifted & talented musician.
