Cancer is just the icing on the cake of an interesting period of time, you know? I’m very thankful that I’m going to get through this and I’ll look back on that time as something that sucked – but made me better. I can live with that. There’s a lot of things I want to do. And there are a lot of people I want to do that with.” Homme didn’t say what kind of cancer it was.
