Veteran radio host Mark Pilgrim is back in the hospital after being discharged on December 29. The father of two took to social media to tell followers he was in the hospital to have fluids drained. Pilgrim is currently fighting stage four lung cancer and was discharged after 64 days in hospital.
He posted an image of himself lying on a hospital bed with a “thumbs up” signal hand gesture. Followers sent messages of encouragement in the comments section of his post.
Pilgrim captioned the post: “Back at hospital having a few litres of fluid drained from my abdomen. One day at a time. Step by step the healing happens. #dontstopbelieving
