We love you, Lin.
A Message From Lin Brehmer:

I have been fighting prostate cancer for several years. I have worked through various radiation treatments, biopsies, CT Scans, MRI’s and drug therapies. The cancer was caught early, treated early, but it has spread places one would rather it did not spread.

Starting Monday I will begin a long period of chemotherapy. It is necessary for me to take a leave of absence from my radio show. I have the full support of my family and friends and WXRT to see me through my medical sabbatical.

What can you do? Only this. Afford me the kindness you have always shown me.

I will miss spending time with you every day, but hopefully, this too will pass and one day down the road, I will announce brightly on the airwaves of 93XRT, “It’s Friday. It’s Great to be Alive.”
