Roy Davis Jr. diagnosed with multiple sclerosis

Chicago house innovator Roy Davis Jr. has revealed to fans that he is suffering from Multiple Sclerosis (MS) forcing him to cancel dates throughout April.

In a statement released on his Facebook page, Davis wrote that he had been taken to hospital after a succession of health problems with doctors telling him the bad news over the weekend. 

Davis Jr. wrote: " This will not be my end, God willing I will play on, I may touring a little less or with a little less intensity than before, but when I can, when my body allows me to, I will give you my all and we will make sure the upcoming shows are special and we carry on dancing."

Through all the pain, the hardship and the adversity, we will overcome. With love, with faith, with togetherness and this music.
