Home » Discussion » Zola's Battle with Cancer

I just got off the phone with Zola. Not that things are GOOD, but things don’t seem as bad as I had originally heard. He does have lung cancer—a large tumor wrapped around his left lung. That’s about all they really know at this point. There are some lesions in the brain but they really don’t know anything about them right now. They may have come from the lung. He has no pain and no real symptoms except for a cough caused by some pneumonia from the problem in his left lung.

He’s up-beat and looking forward to continuing work. He plans on being very frank with the audience about threats he sees and issues he cares about and will address them with a new determination. He plans on working until he can’t anymore. Which will hopefully some time off.
