American country music artist Jo Dee Messina has recently announced that she has been diagnosed with a deadly cancer.
The 47-year-old devout Christian took to her Facebook page and announced with a message.
"Over the years, Jo Dee has built a close relationship with her fans, so those of us at Team JDM wanted to be the first to let you know that she was recently diagnosed with cancer," the message stated. "It has been a trying summer, but her heart has been filled with gratitude for the many opportunities she has had to see God's hand at work."
"As many of you know, Jo Dee is a believer who feels blessed to be surrounded by the love of God-a love that has brought her the inner peace," the message continued.
"On her lowest of low days, she has been able to see God's hand at work and feel His love as she continues her walk. It is because of our Father's love that she has been able to find the beauty in the days that could have brought her the most fear, gratitude in moments that most would call unfair, and companionship during times she might feel the loneliest."
"We don't know anything specific regarding the treatment plan at this point, but Jo Dee is working closely with a team to explore all options," the message continued.
"She has taken the semester off from classes at The King's University, and her last tour date for the year will be October 7 (all other 2017 dates are being postponed), as she will begin cancer treatment this Fall," she concluded.
According to her team, the 'Bye Bye' hit-maker recently co-wrote a new song, 'Here,' with producer Seth Mosley and Mia Fieldes.
The singer is married mother of two.
