The fight continues for Florent Pagny! Present on the set of 8:30 p.m. on Sunday, the 61-year-old singer talked about his autobiography, Pagny by Florent, the main theme of which is his illness: lung cancer that he has been facing for months. If the former coach of The Voicewas on track to end it, he made a “relapse”. “It worked really well, it’s just that I was a bit stupid for four, five months and there could have been this relapse which happened a month and a half ago“, he explained. “The cycle of immunotherapy is worth four months, and in the fifth month, one night it kicked in, I coughed all night […] I saw suddenly that a lymph node has fixed “.
The situation forces him to leave Pantagonia to return to France. “I finished what I had to do, and then I came back and seeing what was happening, he had evolved so much that we knew it was the same origins as the other. He was a little elsewhere but it was the lymph node chain. And then we go back there, chemotherapy“, he continued.
The interpreter of Know how to love reassured about his state of health. “It’s going really well, but I follow the logic where in my projections there is always this clinical part where I’m going to do a third chemotherapy and then we’ll go and see what happened. Either way, I’ll always be under control with this immunotherapy that I won’t let go of. I won’t do the same stupid thing twice. I’ll have to organize it and follow it for a few years“, he insisted. “The disease does not take away the energy or the strength to do something. It is not because we are in treatment that we are no longer doing anything.”
This is the reason why we will find him on tour in several festivals this summer, in France but also in Switzerland and Belgium.
