Johnny Ruffo returns to the studio after brain cancer diagnosis

Johnny Ruffo recently completed his radiotherapy treatment following his brain cancer diagnosis, and as he now prepares for a six-month round of chemotherapy, the singer has returned to the studio.

The 29-year-old took to Instagram on Tuesday, posting a cheery snap captioned: “Back in the studio, Good times (sic)".

The former Home and Away star looked to be in good spirits in the photo wearing a pair of headphones by the mic.

In a candid chat with Be recently, Johnny said despite his diagnosis he is still very much focused on his music and acting.

"I've just finished six weeks of radio therapy which is great," he said, explaining he's on a break before more treatment begins. "But I'm still focused on music and acting, so I'm just staying positive and keep moving forward."

At the beginning of October, Johnny took to social media to thank the staff who had supported him through his radiotherapy treatment.



He recognised he still has “a long road ahead but staying positive”.

Recently appearing on The Project, Johnny admitted that he would have died without the emergency brain surgery he received.

"The surgeon said if I hadn't gone to the hospital that night I would have died in my sleep that night," he told host Carrie Bickmore. "It's just sheer luck that I went in when I did."

He just put his years of headaches down to being young and maybe having a little too much fun.

"Anything that may have been a symptom I just put down to normal life," he admitted.
