I know there’s the chance of it coming back later but I feel so good knowing what was in me is gone and if it ever does come back, we will see it from it’s beginning. Let’s not even worry about that though.
I’m so lucky to still be here and so blessed that I had a super team that fixed me.”After thanking his wife, and the specialists that operated on him, Gilbert went on to thank his fans. “All you fans out there writing me the nicest messages when you all found out what happened.
