Tom Parker of The Wanted has received some good news from his medical team.
The musician, who was diagnosed with brain cancer last year, said there has been a "significant reduction" to the size of his tumor in an Instagram post Thursday.
He also said that he has been "responding well to treatment" and thanked the United Kingdom's National Health Service for its service.
"This journey is a rollercoaster that's for sure," he wrote. "Today is a f---ing good day."
Parker, 32, who was part of the British-Irish boy band most popular for its song "Glad You Came," announced last year that he was battling stage four glioblastoma. Glioblastoma is rare and experts have said that it is among the deadliest type of brain cancers. It affects an estimated 13,000 people in the United States every year and there is no cure. Senators John McCain and Ted Kennedy were both diagnosed with and ultimately died from the disease.
In his announcement last year, Parker said that doctors told him the cancer was "terminal" and said that he would undergo radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatment.
The singer shared that throughout the ordeal, his wife, Kelsey Hardwick, has been "my rock," and that their two children, Aurelia, 18 months, and Bodhi, who was born in October, have been inspirations.
"My babies- I fight for you every second of every day," he added.
