Damn. Floor Jansen has breast cancer.

She posted on FB:
Yeah,Yeah, I know the rules.

Life comes in waves, with ups and downs.
I have had the joy of riding many highs, and I have shared these with you through social media and the many many shows worldwide throughout the many years of my career.
But now a new wave hit me. Not a good one. I have breast cancer. It was diagnosed a little over 2 weeks ago and I will have surgery tomorrow to remove the tumor. My prognosis is very good!!! It seems to be a non-aggressive cancer, which seems to not have spread. I will keep my breast. And I will be cancer free after this surgery, plus a local radiation treatment that will take place three months after this surgery, hopefully. We will know more after the surgery to see if this positive prognosis stands.
The word cancer is a shocker. All that you found important in life before this diagnosis changes radically within minutes. Now I just want to be healthy again. I want to see my daughter grow into a woman; I want to live! And the scariest part of this diagnosis is that I thought I was healthy! I didn’t feel the cancer, I didn’t know it was there until I, as a 40+ woman, went to a standard mammogram checkup. Something many countries offer, for free even for the lucky ones.
Had I not gone there, the tumor would have gone undetected. In a year from now this could have grown much bigger. The thought of that makes me share this story with you. A mammogram is lifesaving! It’s uncomfortable and you might think that you won’t have something in your breasts anyway but GO! And for the men reading this: remind your wife, girlfriend, mother, sister to go and get checked. Even without the luxury I as a western woman experience with free mammogram checkups: GO! Luckily, there are many organizations that offer information about self-detection if you do not have access or funds for a mammogram.
If I might inspire you to take good care of yourself, then something good will come out of this cancer diagnosis.
If all goes as planned, I will be up and running in time for the European tour with Nightwish, that will start on the 20th of November! And I am optimistic since my prognosis is good! I promise to take good care of myself.
I will be off the grid for a while to focus on myself.
Thank you for reading this letter.
Yeah,Yeah, I know the rules.

i had to look up who this was.
then i saw it was some european death metal musician.
then i thought. oh no.... this was probably a phantom menace post and i'm looking at an under age girl.
then i saw it wasn't phantom menace post and felt like i could feel bad for this person i never knew existed before today.

She's not a death metal musician. Floor is the singer for Nightwish, best described as power metal.

Who is she? Probably the best female vocalist performing right now in the world.

I actually read this in Napoleon Dynamite’s voice and it was très humoristique.

People who don't listen to any hard rock genre have a tendency to label everything as death metal.

At least she admitted to be ignorant in that post.

Yeah, I was just trying to be helpful. A lot of differences between death metal, power metal, symphonic metal, thrash metal etc., etc. Nightwish and a band like Arch Enemy, for instance, are world's apart.

I can name two off the top of my head in the metal genre alone that are better than her
Courtney LaPlante (Spiritbox) & Tatiana Shmailyuk (Jinjer)
