[punknews.org] Something Corporate frontman Andrew McMahon is cancer-free
 

MTV is reporting that
Andrew McMahon, lead singer of Something Corporate and Jackšs Mannequin is now in recovery from Acute Lymphatic Leukemia.


McMahon was diagnosed with the illness this past June. He recieved a stem-cell transplant via a bone marrow donation from his sister on August 23rd.



According to the story, the recovery process is a long one, and McMahon is still rail-thin, hairless and exhausted saying

I got finished with the transplant and everything was smooth sailing, as has kind of been the staple of both my hospital visits, and then at the end I got really sick again and came home really sick for like a week or so, but recovered, This is definitely a little bit of a slower process than just doing the chemo, because you're essentially adopting a new immune system."


Since then, McMahon has returned to the studio where he recorded his solo album, Everything in Transit under the name Jack's Mannequin to record a new track titled "The Lights and Buzz," which is expected to surface this winter.
