Michael Bublé has released a statement about his son’s illness

This is awful.

Earlier today, news broke that Michael Bublé's son had been diagnosed with cancer. It was first thought that he had the Mumps until doctors confirmed that it was, in fact, cancer. Michael has just released a statement on Facebook confirming the news and saying that they are undergoing treatment in the US. The Facebook post reads:

“We are devastated about the recent cancer diagnosis of our oldest son Noah who is currently undergoing treatment in the US. We have always been very vocal about the importance of family and the love we have for our children. Luisana and I have put our careers on hold in order to devote all our time and attention to helping Noah get well. At this difficult time, we ask only for your prayers and respect for our privacy. We have a long journey in front of us and hope that with the support of family, friends and fans around the world, we will win this battle, God willing.”
