<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/country-music" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Country singer</a> Toby Keith gave an update on how he’s dealing with <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/cancer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stomach cancer</a>.
The 62-year-old <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/music" target="_blank" rel="noopener">celebrity</a> became the first recipient of the Country Icon Award at the People&#8217;s Choice Country Awards Thursday night. He shared an update about his health right before the event.
“I feel pretty good,” Keith told <a href="https://www.eonline.com/news/1386704/peoples-choice-country-awards-icon-recipient-toby-keith-shares-update-on-stomach-cancer-battle" target="_blank" rel="noopener">E! News</a> in an interview ahead of the awards show. “It’s a little bit of a roller coaster,&#8221; he added.
Keith had previously revealed that he was diagnosed with stomach cancer in the fall of 2021 and had been receiving treatment for months. &#8220;You get good days and, you know, you’re up and down, up and down. It’s always zero to 60 and 60 to zero, but I feel good today,&#8221; the singer went on.
The musician said it was &#8220;nice to recognize my 30-year career&#8221; at the awards show. “It’s pretty mind-boggling,” Keith said. &#8220;Those years of pounding those songs out there and remembering where you were when each one was conceived and all that, it’s amazing.&#8221;
During a separate <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/toby-keiths-faith-his-rock-following-stomach-cancer-diagnosis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview</a> with Fox News Digital, Keith credited his faith with how he’s been getting through his cancer battle. &#8220;I lean on my faith and I just pray and lean into it,&#8221; the “Red Solo Cup” singer explained. 
&#8220;You gotta&#8217; do what you gotta&#8217; do, and I don&#8217;t know how people do it without faith … that&#8217;s what I did, it was my rock.&#8221;
Keith also said he intends to return to performing in the fall if &#8220;everything goes good.&#8221;

The singer has been keeping fans updated on the status of his health.
“Last fall I was diagnosed with stomach cancer,” Keith tweeted in June 2022. “I’ve spent the last 6 months receiving chemo, radiation and surgery. So far, so good. I need time to breathe, recover and relax.”
“I am looking forward to spending this time with my family,” he went on. “But I will see the fans sooner than later. I can’t wait.”
Keith also <a href="https://people.com/toby-keith-hopes-to-tour-this-fall-as-stomach-cancer-tumor-shrinks-7554392">mentioned</a> later that the tumor had shrunk to one-third of its original size due to aggressive treatments. 
&#8220;I&#8217;m feeling pretty good,&#8221; the country star told The Oklahoman in early June. &#8220;Basically, everything is in a real positive trend. You never know with cancer, so you have to prepare.&#8221;
