GoFundMe OTD: Rock Legend Sylvain Sylvain of The New York Dolls Needs Help After Cancer Diagnosis

By James St. James on April 29, 2019 11:04 am

Legendary songwriter/rock guitarist Sylvain Sylvain, an original member of the groundbreaking, gender-fluid ’70s band The New York Dolls, was recently diagnosed with cancer. 

He writes:

Hi Everybody:
I know there has been some curiosity, speculation and, yes, rumor about why I haven’t been Rampaging songs on FB or, more importantly, out on tour promoting my book “There’s No Bones in Ice Cream” and playing in a town near YOU.
First the BAD news: For about a year now, I have been battling cancer.
Then the GOOD news:I have an upcoming surgery with a great doctor that may do the TRICK.   There will, however, be a somewhat long recovery period (at least a year).  I have not been able to work since last year and have more surgery scheduled.  I love life! As hard as life has been to me these past 2 years I want to live and I know with your love & support I’ll have the best chance that I could ever have,  
Love
Sylvain Sylvain

A GoFundMe page has been set up to help pay for the cost of his recovery. Of the $80,000 goal, nearly $28,000 has been successfully raised. Go here to help.
