Bee Gees' Robin Gibb diagnosed with liver cancer Singer's condition is 'not good' according to family friend

Gibb, who was reported to be suffering from stomach pains last month and was said to be in hospital receiving treatment for the inflammation of his colon, was diagnosed with the illness several months ago, reports the Mirror.

The 61-year-old singer has since cancelled several public appearances and was taken to hospital this week by ambulance, and his family have flown to the UK from America to be by his side once he was allowed home.

I just read about this. So sad. The Gibb family have endured many tragedies over the past two decades. First with losing Andy at such a young age, then Maurice passed away and now this.

I hope that he has a chance to beat this terrible disease.

I hope so, too. I really like their music, especially the poppy 60s-early 70s stuff. Best wishes Robin.

I saw a small piece about this on TV last night. They showed some pictures and a small film clip of Robin and the guy looks bad. He is so emaciated.

Best wishes go out to Robin and his family........I hope he gets to feeling better!

I keep seeing Robins' Name come up on my news feed? But I thought was a concert/benefit thing ?

Poor Robin..The Bee Gees' were such a part of my tween teenie bopper years..the pre-rock Astrid..was Disco

Best Wishes for them..

This is unfortunate news... It is a tough disease to conquer so I can only wish him the best in whatever time he has left and how long he can fight it.

My heart breaks for Barry and the rest of their families.

This makes me sad. The Bee Gees have played such a huge part in my life, from my teens all the way up to present day.

I wish Robin the best and pray for him and his family in this difficult time. Seeing those pictures that Magic posted is heartbreaking.
