I guess it is about the cells being canerous - as ’gift’ in german means poison....bad, bad news for us...but of course more so for marie.
If it is true then: ’we love you and are thinking of you!’.

It says that not only the tumour was cancerous but that the cancer already spreaded over her whole body!
She gets chemotherapy and kind of radiation..she is feeling not very well (understandable).
Her condition is very bad! The medication is hard and Marie suffers from sickness and looses her hair.
Micke is of course supporting her as the whole family is.
Well as I understand she first got the radiation and it did not work and now she will have the chemotherapy.
She hopes that it is going to help fighting the cancer that spreaded over her body..
Ferdan said on December 11, 2002 09:38:
i´m gonna cry a lot
anyway, Marie will fight really hard!! we know her we love her....
karmakillernz said on December 11, 2002 09:39:
She’s a fighter, alright. I just hope she has the strength to fight through this.
Majdy said on December 11, 2002 09:42:
you’re right guys, let’s hope that Marie will have the strenght to fight is, and as her fans let’s help her, well I don’t even know what to do, but maybe we can start by wishing her the best... the new album, concert, etc not important att all, I just hope she will heal soon....
pietROxette said on December 11, 2002 09:51:
It’s quite shocking, but Expressen is a tabloid, let’s just wait till an official announcement from the Management.
zeeshan said on December 11, 2002 09:52:
VERY BAD NEWS!
This CAN and I am afraid MIGHT be the end of Roxette afterall. This treatment is very powerfull.. u loose hair, weight, your nose can go bonkers ’cuz it starts to smell more than it should. The whole thing brings u down on the ground. I think Marie is not gona be doing anything till the end of next year (but that also depends on the number of chemotherpies she is given).
Doesn’t matter if Rox stays alive anymore.. I want Marie to be fine and healthy and up and running.
MARIE.. WE LOVE U AND WE WILL BE WITH U!
Jud (moderator) said on December 11, 2002 09:54:
hej people, Marie needs our support now!
So stop crying, shouting, going crazy and get just positive thoughts in, ok??
She is fighting, she will be OK!
Majdy said on December 11, 2002 10:04:
you’re right, Judith. All Marie needs from us is to give her support and positive thoughts! I agree with you!
Majdy said on December 11, 2002 10:14:
what a positive reply... keep on like this, guys... Marie need this....
Ferdan said on December 11, 2002 10:16:
Obviously she’s going to be fine...
I already passed this kind of situation with someone of my family..... and love was almost as important as the medicines.
so she’s gonna be fine
Peppermint said on December 11, 2002 10:28:
it is not said that it already spreaded over her whole body in that article!!! so don’t panic!!! that’s what the therapy should prevent...if the cancer is really all over her body there’s no control over it anymore I’m afraid...
Jud (moderator) said on December 11, 2002 10:33:
better is to wait for official confirmation AND to keep on thinking positive!
marcusvandeursen said on December 11, 2002 10:37:
Official this, official that... I simply cannot imagine Expressen doing false reports on such severe things as this.
Anyway, let’s keep our fingers crossed for Marie. Simply never had imagined it to come to this stage after the previous happenings.
Kiwein1 said on December 11, 2002 10:38:
Well I translated it into english from the german translation! (-:
Maybe some words got changed or lost..don’t know..my swedish is not that well and I had to translate it from the german translation. So SORRY if anything is wrong with it.
But I read in the german translation that the cancer is not under control at the moment..that is how I translated it!
I really hope we got an official statement VERY soon!
Peppermint said on December 11, 2002 10:50:
the translation at roxette.nl says that “it threatens to spread” not that it is already the case. So let’s hope that’s true.
lonely_girl said on December 11, 2002 10:52:
Oh no!!! I was suspicious because of no news but I didn’t belive it is so bad!
KEEP THE FAITH, MARIE
Kiwein1 said on December 11, 2002 10:54:
Bad enough that it is cancer I think ))-:
Really cannot believe that!!
Can someone relieve us please??
Santi said on December 11, 2002 11:11:
C’mon Marie, you have all our support and we know that what you say it’s true, you’re a fighter!
Roxoholic said on December 11, 2002 12:07:
I know Marie will beat this. Marie is a fighter and she will not give up. Marie: We all love you, we all support you and we will always be there for you.
vivien said on December 11, 2002 12:31:
Unfortunately they write that the cancer is not under control.
But I believe that she is going to be fine.
Sanna said on December 11, 2002 12:36:
Oh no... This can’t be true.. It just can’t. I can’t accept it.
Marie-fan said on December 11, 2002 13:09:
Now I´ve read the english translation and that´s so hard. I hope that´s not true.
But we all know that Marie is a strong person. She will be well. Let´s hope and pray for her.
roxing-Jane said on December 11, 2002 13:11:
OH NOOOO!!
I can’t believe it, everytime when I start again to think positive about Marie’s condition there comes always something worser!
I was praying the whole time that there won’t come the news that it’s cancer, and with the weeks I really believed it cause Per was talking so positive everytime when he saw her and she was in the studio again.
BUT NOW!!
It’s so unfair, why Marie??
And what means it’s threating to spread? Of course, when it’s cancer there is always the danger that it already spreaded. That’s the awful at cancer, but why did they write it? And what did they mean with they don’t get it under control?
Did it already spread? Did they find another Tumor?
Sorry, I really tried to think positive all the weeks, but now I’m loosing more and more the “positive thinking”.
But I will not stop praying for her.....
Denstandigaresan said on December 11, 2002 13:23:
Not good news.
All these people saying, I KNOW Marie will be alright. You simply don’t know that!
Continue to pray, or whatever. But, you’re not God... you can’t say you know she’ll be ok!
I hope she is of course.
I’ve lost family to cancer. It causes pain for the suffer and those who love them.
JoyRidErno said on December 11, 2002 14:07:
My week is/was horrible... and now that...
I CAN’T believe this... Just can’t... :(
m-cvk said on December 11, 2002 14:07:
Let’s all think positive for Marie and her family and friends! And let’s wait for an official statement from the management. Expressen writes a lot of gossip, most of the time...
@Kiwein: the article said that the doctors will try to PREFENT the cancer from spreading....it probably hasn’t spread yet.
RoxiRoxt said on December 11, 2002 14:16:
There is no statement from the management so can we trust this article? I mean I heard many times that expressen doesn´t always tell the truth! I don´t want to that this article is true!!! All of us don´t want to!
MARIE DON´T GIVE UP! YOUR´RE A VERY STRONG FIGHTER! AND YOU WILL WIN!!! WE LOVE YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!!
Kiwein1 said on December 11, 2002 14:35:
Yes..I hope so that it did not spread yet.. but I read something of: “cancer not under control”....does not sound very well!!
Oh my god...GIVE US A PRESS STATEMENT PLEASE and let this horror end!!
Chaghi said on December 11, 2002 17:42:
Stop everybody!!
I don’t think Expressen is telling lies, but... maybe it’s trying to sell a few more issues.
We don’t know what exactly is going on, and maybe we’ll never know. And that’s ok, as it is *so* private to Marie and her family and closest friends.
My mother was operated this year because of a cancer, she was under radiotherapy for about 2 months, every day, and now she’s undergoing chemotherapy. And she’s fine. It’s not that terrible. Believe me.
Most of the times, this kind of treatment is done just as a precaution. It doesn’t mean the cancer is spreading.
So keep the faith, and please, don’t go beyond the facts, ok?
wendy said on December 11, 2002 18:08:
This is really bad news.....
A customer from our salon had a tumor in her head,she had radiotheraphy and so on,she couldn’t eat or drink anymore,you saw her sicker every week,she looked really bad,but,since a few weeks,she’s much better,she looks and is healty again.................
Marie,you will be alright,you know,your family know,and everybody else knows...... ;)
tove said on December 11, 2002 18:13:
of course Marie´s gonna be fine !!! Don´t dare to think anything else !!!!!!!!!!!
mon-ami said on December 11, 2002 18:18:
there is a translation to the article in http://www.roxette.nl/ but it says that this rumor about the trueth condition of marie was not confirmed by ROXETTE’s management , so lets pray it is not true!! OY MY GOD...
joyrider said on December 11, 2002 19:34:
can can only say, it is so sad ... i’ve no words for this news ... “TEARS OF A CLOWN” running down my face.
daniel_alv said on December 11, 2002 19:36:
it does NOT say that she has cancer over her whole body....
it just says that she is going to the hospital for treatment very often and that the cancer is not under controll... it didn’t say that the WHOLE vody was infected by cancer....
we have to hope that expressen is lying....
bunny said on December 11, 2002 20:55:
why are we all stressed out because of a tabloid aritcle? u haven’t seen the kind of crap they put out in american tabloids yet ...
Hotblooded said on December 12, 2002 01:26:
Bunny is right!
Let’s wait until we get an official statment from EMI, u can never be sure with tabloids they always like to make a story bigger than it really is that’s how they sell papers!
An official statment (which I think they should do now!) on Marie’s condition will clear a lot of things up for us. Of course if it is true it will be really tough but Marie is a fighter and she will do her best to survive this. If she does or doesn’t she has touched all of us in an incredible way what a gift she has been in my life and I will always be thankful for that!
God bless Marie.
LoneGunman said on December 12, 2002 01:53:
Hi Everyone,
Let’s face the facts, dear friends...
1. I don’t think that Expressen is lying... of course it’s true. We don’t really need to wait for any official statement from anyone. That’s a fact, we can’t ignore it !!!
2. I study medicine, and if Marie really have a malign tumor, than we’re in a VERY VERY deep problem.
80% of the malign brain tumors are the ones called “Astroglioms” and this kind of tumor, after being removed by surgery, trend to come back in 6/9 months, stronger than ever (even with all radio/chemistryteraphy)... and only 14% of the perssons with this tumor lives more than 1 year after the beggining of the treatment. It’s another fact... I know it’s sad, but that’s the true... let’s face it !
3. It’s sad. I know... but this mean that we will give up ? We can choose to cry as babies or start to do what we can do now for Marie... to pray and to believe. We still have a hope... she has the best medicine in the world... she has money to pay any treatment and she wants to fight... so, let’s pray and believe that, even with so little chance, she will win.
I choose to believe. And you ?
All the best
LoneGunman
bunny said on December 12, 2002 02:59:
i find it hard to believe that one week they are talking about her going to the studio to record the new pop hit songs, and another week, they make her sound like she’s in the death bed ...
DaminehGessle said on December 12, 2002 03:08:
Fighting doesn’t help. No matter how good of a fighter you are, cancer is not a joke. My grandma was a real fighter when she got cancer but it was spreaded through her entire body that she passed away in 10 days. I am not saying this will happen to Marie but let’s not take this as a joke saying oh don’t cry she’ll be fine.
cgvazquez said on December 12, 2002 03:46:
only i can say: shit, shit, shit!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know that she will be fine.
Shit! Now i´m shiver and i want to cry.
MARIE WILL BE FINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
roxing-Jane said on December 12, 2002 10:07:
I can’t believe too that Expressen released this article without knowing if it’s true or not..no, I really can’t imagine...Marie...
tevensso (moderator) said on December 12, 2002 13:31:
I don’t know if it’s true or not, what I do know is that NO OTHER Swedish media has even mentioned this. Expressen is not Sweden’s most reliable source.
SisterDarkness said on December 13, 2002 03:37:
Very depressing news to hear but most of us non obssessively fanatical people knew that the outcome was not going to be pleasant. I’ve been working with cancer patients for over 6 years now and alternative medicines (shark cartilage - yes it does work and has had up to a 50% success rate which conventional medicine has 14% or so, Immune system boosters, acupuncture, etc.). While cancer in the brain is not a very pleasant subject it is not the absolute worst type that exsists.
I would like to say that I believe in doctors and chemo and radition but unfortunately, I do not. Chemo is a poison that is used to destroy fast growing cells in the body (hair, stomach lining, immune system, cancer.) If it destroys the immune system your body has nothing left to fight normal diseases and the cancer itself. Also, there is a higher reocurrence of cancer after remission for patients that take Chemo. So definately, if she does undergo that form of treatment boosting her immune system should be a major factor.
I’ve dealt with the nitty gritty and unfortunately have had several clients pass on. I did have a client that was 21 years old and had a malignant tumour in a smiliar area to that reported of Marie. This person is still alive, managed to fight, put herself through law school, get married and have a child. So there is always hope.
I believe Marie is very strong and if she wants to fight she will fight even under the most difficult of circumstances. She has her family, friends and career to fight for. Though, I really hope that this will cause both Per and Marie to take it a bit easier than they have been.
I normally do not pray for things anymore. I have my reasons for it and a different religion which people shun and don’t understand. However, if there is a god, goddess, angels, almighty being, hopefully they will be kind enough to help Marie through this.
-SisterDarkness.
PS: All of the obssessed lunatics out there. Leave Marie alone... I am completely, 100% tired, sick and pissed off of the fu***** fans that think that they are Roxettes biggest fan so much that they need to harrass M and P or other memebers of the band. No one here is better than the other no matter how many pictures you own, how many CDs you have or how many times you’ve visited Sweden. What people that are fanatical are doing is giving a bad rep to people that just genuinely love the music without having to be a part of M and P’s lives...
ally77 said on December 13, 2002 11:02:
Hej, Sad time I know, I only just heard about Marie. I am praying for her return to good health and my thoughs and prayers are with Marie and her family as this diffcult time.
roxing-Jane said on December 13, 2002 12:36:
@sisterdarkness: Thx for your words, esp. the “P.S.:” part..you are so right!
seba said on December 13, 2002 23:23:
this article is in roxette.nl:
We have received this email from Marie Dimberg, Roxette’s manager, in response to the article that appeared yesterday on Expressen:
Marie wants all of you to know that she is well and strong under the circumstances . As you know, the entire tumour was removed at the operation and Marie is resting in her home. Out of respect for Marie’s privacy we will not give any further medical details but she is very positive and looks
forward to the Christmas holidays.
Marie Dimberg
