The WCW, Smokey Mountain Wrestling & ECW star revealed via his Facebook page that he was diagnosed with Lymphoma back in the middle of November and is currently going through chemotherapy. Smothers shared other unfortunate news regarding his health, listing some heart issues and cited trauma from the body and head. Smothers does note that what he’s going through isn’t fatal but wants to make sure that everyone knows he appreciates the love and prayers.
“To all concerned I was diagnosed Nov.14 w Lymphoma cancer which now am on my 3rd treatment 3 to go Of Chemo which is shrinking the rapid growing tumors.Doc told me yrs ago I have blockage in my artery so here we are an have lost 45 percent of my heart use.Also he said I have lots of head,body trauma.Doc said I had a heart attack some time back an didn’t know it.Have felt bad for awhile now but thought I was getting old, lol. This is not fatal as its between my Pancreas,Colon,neck.A big TY to all of u but I look at it as getting a tube up,overhaul,tires rotated,oil change,etc.all in one lol. Remember LIFE is a BATTLE an I’m in it to win it so don’t hesitate in trying to be tough by putting off getting checked out in this day an age u never know?? GOD BLESS EVERYBODY.”
