Heart's Ann Wilson undergoing preventive chemotherapy for cancer, band postpones tour

Ann Wilson, lead singer of the classic rock band Heart, is undergoing preventive chemotherapy after being diagnosed with an unspecified form of cancer.

Wilson shared the news July 2 in a statement obtained by TODAY.com that also announced the band had postponed all remaining dates on the North American leg of its "Royal Flush Tour."

"I underwent an operation to remove something that, as it turns out, was cancerous," said Wilson, 74. "The operation was successful & I’m feeling great but my doctors are now advising me to undergo a course of preventive chemotherapy & I’ve decided to do it."

The "These Dreams" singer said her physicians have instructed her to "take the rest of the year away from the stage in order to fully recover."

Anne is the only woman I’d ever date after losing my wife why I’d probably even pop the big ? In dating her I’d ask her you wanna go bass fishing.

It be true love if i let her use my daiwa ultralight.

I’d probably ask Grace potter out as well yet I’m 58 to old for her I could adopt Grace yet we Grace and i could jam.

...if the problem is throat related.
I heard a couple recent videos where she was really struggling with her voice.
For decades she could tear it up, like it was nothing.
I know everybody's voice loses range & pop as they age, but this was too fast.
