The legendary rocker appeared virtually at Boston’s Pan-Mass Challenge fundraiser, which raises money for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute to support cancer research and treatment. He revealed that his wife is now cancer-free, more than eight years since she was diagnosed.
“As you know, Patti’s been living with her multiple myeloma for over eight years, but now, thankfully, she is in remission," revealed Springsteen.
Springsteen applauded Dana-Farber for diligence in care and research as they treated his wife, and believes her journey "taught us something." He adds that he hopes people understand, "Medical research isn’t an idea. It isn’t politics. It isn’t a line in a budget.”
The rocker ended his message by saying that he and his wife are grateful for everything the foundation has done. Scialfa made the news of her cancer public when she appeared in the Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band documentary. She revealed having stepped back from touring due to the challenges from the cancer that affected her immune system.
Springsteen and his wife have been together for about 37 years, after Scialfa auditioned to join the E Street Band in 1984. The two started as friends, and it soon turned romantic after Springsteen separated from his first wife. In 1991, the two were married and welcomed three children by 1994.
