Tommy DeCarlo's family has set up a GoFundMe page. Below is the message from the family. If you can, please donate to help Tommy:

Our Dad has been fighting the toughest battle of his life.

In late September, he suffered a sudden brain bleed and had to undergo an emergency craniotomy. During surgery, doctors discovered two melanoma masses on his brain and another spot on his lungs. He amazed all of us by fully recovering from the surgery and bravely beginning treatment for the cancer.

But before he could complete those treatments, he suffered another brain bleed and has been hospitalized since Thanksgiving morning. His oncology team is clear: he urgently needs inpatient therapy so he can safely continue cancer treatment. Without it, he faces a dangerously high risk of another bleed and further, possibly irreversible, damage.

Unfortunately, insurance will not cover therapy until January. Waiting that long is simply not an option.

We are starting this fundraiser to raise the $50,000 needed to get him the therapy he needs right now so oncology can resume treatment and give him the best chance at recovery.

Our Dad is strong. He is a fighter. And he’s giving this battle everything he’s got — but he needs your help on this one.

He is deeply grateful for the love, prayers, and support he’s already received from friends, family, and fans all over the world. It has lifted him up during the hardest moments and reminded him he’s not fighting alone.

If you can donate, share, or simply send your love his way, it means more to us than you’ll ever know. Thank you for helping us get him the care he urgently needs.

Sincerely,
Annie, Talia and Tommy Jr.

If you've ever wanted to know more about the drama between Tom Scholz and the record label surrounding Boston's third album, then good news, there's a book coming out that covers just that.

Power Soak, a new e-book by Journalist Brendan Borrell tells the story:

In the 1970s, Tom Scholz built Boston's sound in his basement, fusing engineering precision with soaring melody to create the clean, explosive style that made "More Than a Feeling" a hit. His studio inventions spread to Journey, Def Leppard, and The Cars, bringing his signature guitar tone to many of the defining albums of the time.

But when Scholz refused to hand over his own record, Third Stage, until it met his exacting standards, CBS Records chief Walter Yetnikoff declared war. Royalties were cut off. Lawsuits piled up. The band splintered. And Scholz sank further into isolation. Then two rival power brokers--Irving Azoff and David Geffen--entered the fray, racing to pry loose Boston's long-awaited album, which would become one of the last blockbusters of the classic-rock era.

Power Soak reveals the full inside story of this battle for the first time. Drawing on thousands of pages of court filings, internal CBS documents, and new interviews, journalist Brendan Borrell reveals how Scholz pushed back against the major-label power structure and helped arm artists with new tools in their struggle for creative control.

The e-book will be released December 9, 2025 on Amazon, Apple Books, Barnes & Noble, and Kobo.
