"Based on my contact in recent days with Sheryl, her doctor and her family, I am confident that she will have a full and complete recovery and the world will be a better place for it," said Armstrong, who asked that Crow's fans keep her "in your thoughts and prayers."

While I was reading the original article, I thought of how sad it is for her to go through this so soon after a serious break-up. Not a fan of her music, but I like her as a person and will keep her in my thoughts.

I actually heard a teaser on Fox News, Sheryl Crow has a medical condition, & then they go & talk about other stuff, so I got on the computer & got on Sheryl's official board to find out what was wrong, & then I came here. I was really upset at reading this news, but glad to hear that she's expected to make a full recovery. Glad they caught it early.

Yes, class act. I adore Melissa Etheridge. Sheryl Crow not so much, but this news came as a shock anyways. She is in my thoughts and I hope she makes a speedy recovery.

That is very sad, but I am glad they caught it early. She's a strong chic, she'll make it through. The timing is weird though, with the break up and all.

After reading the plethora of "I can't stand her, but I hope she's alright" posts, I felt compelled to say that I've been a huge fan of Sheryl's since way before I even knew who Stevie Nicks was.

Anyway, it looks like she's going to be okay, which is great news.

Wishing Sheryl all the best and a speedy recovery. FYI. Did you know that men can also get breast cancer? It is extremely rare but not impossible.

Wow that is truly devastating . At least she caught it early and eradicated it from her body with no traces left. Early detection really is the only way to beat this thing. And to have to go through all that radiation, man, that is really horrible.
