'Toby Keith passed peacefully last night on February 5th, surrounded by his family. He fought his fight with grace and courage. Please respect the privacy of his family at this time,' a message posted on his social media platforms read.

The singer is survived by his wife, Tricia Lucas, and their three children, daughters Shelley Covel Rowland, fellow singer Krystal Keith and son, Stelen. He also had four grandchildren. During his illustrious career, Keith sold over 40 million records.

Earlier this month, the singer opened up about his stomach cancer battle in an interview with 9News. The Should've Been a Cowboy singer was first diagnosed in 2021. Keith was born Toby Keith Covel in Clinton, Oklahoma, in 1961.

'I was going through all the chemo, radiation, surgery, and I got to the point where I was comfortable with whatever happened. I had my brain wrapped around it, and I was in a good spot either way,' Keith said.

Similar outcome, this time with Ivermectin.

Patient Zero Comes Back From Stage Four Cancer: Was It Ivermectin?
Rescue with Michael Capuzzo ^ | 02/06/2024 | MARY BETH PFEIFFER

Paul Mann received chemotherapy and radiation treatments for metastatic prostate cancer. “It was just so hard,” he said. “Then I thought, I can’t give up. I have it written on my arm that I won’t.” He took ivermectin and supplements after traditional care and is in remission. (Photos from Paul Mann)

After ten rounds of radiation and six of chemotherapy, Paul Mann, fifty-five years old, wanted to know his chances. “You’re squeaking by day to day,” his doctor told him. It had been five months since his diagnosis. He was referred to a hospice service and seen by a minister.
Then something happened of which most end-of-the-line cancer patients can only dream.

Mann, a government intelligence analyst from Fenton, Missouri, received a call from a doctor he had heard about from a friend; the doctor had treated breast cancer for thirty years. They talked for three hours in calls that became a Tuesday routine. Early on, a drug named ivermectin came up. It was approved, had few side effects, and had been shown in laboratory and animal studies to kill several kinds of cancer cells.

Mann got some of it himself, making an eight-hour round-trip drive to Tennessee, the only state where ivermectin can be bought over-the-counter. He took it every day. And two months later, this man with almost no chance of survival was in remission.

“In Paul Mann’s case, the response to treatment after two months of ivermectin was nothing less than astonishing,” said Mann’s guardian angel, Dr. Kathleen Ruddy, a retired cancer surgeon and author of a book on breast cancer. “Off the charts astonishing.”

Mann may someday be called Patient Zero in a first-of-its-kind study, announced by the FLCCC Alliance at its conference today, to see if old drugs like ivermectin work for cancer. Dr. Paul Marik, FLCCC chief scientific officer, and Dr. Ruddy, who was trained at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, will become partners in an “observational study” involving 500 patients and five clinics nationwide. The goal will be to learn if repurposed drugs improve five-year survival rates for several types of cancer, including breast, prostate, lung, and colorectal, an FLCCC press release states.

Dr. Ruddy did not treat Mann but rather talked a dying man through his options. In the same manner, patients in the new study will choose which FDA-approved drugs—like ivermectin, mebendazole, nitazoxanide and others—they want to use to treat their cancers, either along with or instead of traditional therapies. Their progress will be overseen and tracked by clinicians who will share anonymous patient information across sites in a collaboration to see what works.

Of prime importance, “If you have a look at the list of drugs, they are completely safe and devoid of significant side effects,” said Dr. Marik, who wrote a book on repurposing drugs for cancer. “That’s what oncologists don’t like.”

Indeed, the idea to challenge American cancer care with off-the-shelf drugs is, indisputably, a daring undertaking. That’s just one reason why it will be performed “methodically, impartially, and according to the highest standards of medical research,” Dr. Ruddy said.

“We must make sure this is absolutely above board because people are going to go after us furiously,” Dr. Marik told me.

I'm glad to see that there are at least some voices of reason still on FR. Not EVERY pharmaceutical company develops COVID vaccines; we are not prolonging the lives of cancer patients to squeeze every last penny out of them. If a cancer patient is treated and is in remission for a long enough time, the treatment was effectively a cure.

I’m trying to remember if Trump sides with paranoid jab crackpots, or with the people who have decades of experience producing biologicals and pharmaceuticals. You seem to have loads of knowledge, maybe you know the answer.

Years ago if I wanted to enjoy a good story about corporations conspiring to kill us all for profit I’d have to find an issue of Pravda.

Now I can just look for one of the threads here that feature Died Suddenly or Big Pharma or anything else that attracts the Q School of Medicine and Magical Thinking.

The big difference was that the Pravda writers knew that their stories were crap and they didn’t believe a word of what they were writing.

And still nothing yet from Taylor Swift, although Toby is pretty much responsible for starting her career.

Taylor Swift is not on my radar - she’s an average entertainer with no particular or unique talent other than a team who sells her brand...and because she’s a narcissist she laps up the attention.....also kown to leave those she uses in her wake.

If you don’t have an argument, just insult me. Maybe you’ll convince me of whatever point you don’t have.

The alt medicine nuts keep trying to impose their ignorance on the whole site. They’re similar to Wokesters in their zeal for wanting to silence Ideas Unworthy of Being Shared.

I don’t know if we always had so many of them or if the pandemic brought in new ones. Sign up dates are sometimes recent.

True that Toby Keith took Taylor Swift under his wing and started her career.

However, Swift is so controlled by the Left that she literally is not allowed to say a word about a guy who sang a song about how America will "put a boot up your ass" to its enemies. She is truly a slave-princess to the Left.

Aside from that song, "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American)", Toby Keith wrote a bunch of other great songs in his career.

My wife’s cancer started in lungs, with no symptoms at all, she never smoked, but growing up in her family of 8 people, 6 were smokers. Before any symptoms appeared the cancer had already spread to ribs, brain, lymph nodes. She survived 5 years and 10 months post diagnosis of stage-4 which is as good as it can be.

My my, gassy from NJ eructates once again. How’s the world of comic book medical knowledge going these days? Any new fantasy theories that we ought to know about? Since Trump shares the same opinion that I have regarding the vaccines, do conspiracy nuts apply “gaslight” to him as well? I’m sure that RFK would like to know the answer to that question.
