The artist revealed he had done "chemo, high dose chemo, medication, transplants, transfusions, surgeries, etc."

"It is rare, and it has managed to stay many steps ahead of me no matter what I throw at it. It has taken away half of my hearing, 60pounds of weight, my confidence, and will continue its murderous path until I can manage to stop it somehow, and kill it," Cormac added.

Cormac noted at the time that the illness had not taken away his desire to live or his joy of producing music.

In his final post in August, he reminded his followers that life is brief, and most of the time, individuals do not get to choose their fate and create the future they choose.
