It\u2019s in his esophagus, it\u2019s in the top of his stomach \u2013 it\u2019s where the tumor is \u2013 and it\u2019s also spread to his liver.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The episode of <em>Real Money<\/em> detailing Money\u2019s cancer battle will air September 12th on AXS TV. The singer received the diagnosis last fall while filming the series\u2019 second season, which will now focus on Money\u2019s cancer and the impact it has on his family.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat I don\u2019t want to do is I don\u2019t want to keep the fact that I have cancer from everybody,\u201d Money added. \u201cIt\u2019s not honest. I want to be honest with everybody. I want people to know that cancer [treatment] has come a long way and not everybody dies from cancer like they did in the Fifties and Sixties. Am I going to live a long time? Who knows?
