Eddie Sutton, vocalist of crossover outfit Leeway, has entered hospice care amid his continued battle against lung cancer. The musician revealed in 2021 that he had had been diagnosed with Stage 3 Adenocarcinoma. Late last month he entered a hospice center in the Long Island, NY area after participating in a clinical trial. Earlier this week, he shared the following update on his health and outlook:
“I’ve now been in hospice care for about 6 days and I’m still trying to prove the professionals wrong and try to keep hope alive.
The problem is my appetite….as much as I want to eat and crave so many foods I just can’t seem to swallow it or the smell becomes nauseating, to me.
It’s quite a torture….try to imagine wanting to eat but your taste buds make it taste different or there’s something in the food that makes you feel sick.
I have to rely on the same things; Ensure nutritional drinks and fruit cups to supplement whatever I can stomach and even that is minimal because my stomach muscle is so infantly small.
I’m still fighting folks I’m not stopping”
