As noted before, Rebel, real name Tanea Brooks revealed this past November that she was diagnosed with primary pulmonary lymphoma, which is a type of cancer in the lungs, and had been undergoing impatient rehab this past February.
Rebel provided an update earlier today on Instagram announcing that she was recently diagnosed with terminal ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis).
“First, I want to say thank you for all your prayers, because for those who know, I spent a two-year medical journey trying to find out what is wrong.
And finally, our prayers have been answered.
The thing is, sometimes we don’t want to hear the answer to our prayers.
And so, while I was waiting to have lung surgery for the masses on my lungs, the doctors at Mayo found, finally found, what’s going on.
The doctors have diagnosed me with terminal ALS.
There is not a lot of research behind ALS, and we don’t know how long I have, but it explains why I have trouble walking and talking, and all my functions will soon decline. But now we can prepare for the future and what is to come.
And I wanna say thank you to Tony Khan and AEW for supporting me on this medical journey. It has been a blessing that is unheard of. And from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
And thank you to all of you for your prayers. Please continue to pray for a peaceful journey and a peaceful passing. I love you.“
