As Switchfoot prepares for the release of their next album, Native Tongue,frontman Jon Foreman penned a note to their fans revealing the news about Fontamillas.
“I got a call from Jerome a few weeks ago. He was calling with sobering news: he has cancer. One of Jerome’s kidneys has a large mass on it that has been growing for quite some time. The good news is that the cancer has not spread to his other organs,” Foreman revealed.
Today they updated the status of how he is doing on twitter;
We will know more in about a week. Jerome hasn’t been in a lot of pain and is resting now. Some of his first words … “I made it.” Yes indeed. We love you, Jerome!

The tumor had been successfully removed. The surgeon said that it had not attached or spread to anything else in his body which is great news! It was the best outcome they could’ve hoped for…
