Ronnie James Dio Diagnosed With Stomach Cancer
Wednesday, November 25, 2009
After canceling a European tour last week, RONNIE JAMES DIO’s wife and manager, Wendy Dio, has announced that he’s been diagnosed with stomach cancer. He’s currently seeking treatment at the Mayo Clinic and hopes to be back in health to continue his crusade of bringing metal to the masses.

wow. that sucks for all.
Yeah, that does suck. Why couldn’t this have happened to Ozzy instead? It could have stopped him from further ruining the Ozzy name, well what their may have been left of it anyways.
^^^^Wow, that’s immature.
ozzy sucks
get well Ronnie
ozzy is the greatest!!!
Nothing in this world i hate more then what he did to the greatest band ever but this is very fucking sad. I hope he recovers and is back doing more solo work. One of the best rock/metal voices ever.
Maybe he’ll take a HOLY DIVE, and we’ll never have to hear his shitty voice ever again.
^ Fails at being funny. Try again.
lick my balls, Dio is a fag.
hes a dwarf, he’s immortal.
Metalsucks: All positive comments
Blabbermouth: Many positive comments and one semi-negative comment
Blabbermouths Second Article: All positive comments, one negative but not hateful comment
SMN officially has the least mature readership of any of the big metal news/blog sites.
Blabbermouth…fucking BLABBERMOUTH, didn’t even have people talking shit.
Just makes it clear that many of SMN’s readers care more about e-fights and shit talking than about the metal community!
\m/ Get well Ronnie!
bummer
@ HolyDragon : you’re the fag if you’re reading 4 times the same news. get a life
just for the record : DIO never should’ve replaced ozzzzzz
People on SMN only say this because they are now jumping the artsy faggy metal bandwagon, and listen to hardcore garbage. So of course they’ll bash someone who actually has talent.
poor guy … hope he get’s well somehow
Hopefully this is an early diagnosis, otherwise stomach cancer is hard to treat. Pull through Ronnie.
I hope he recovers. Stomach cancer is rough. To all of those posting negative things here. It’s ok to be young. But is it necessary to advertise it so obviously?
Hope you get well soon Dio our thoughts are with you man !!
ah man. i hope he gets through this.
