Toby Keith is beyond thankful for his fans!

Days after the seven-time Grammy nominee revealed his stomach cancer diagnosis, he again turned to social media to send a sweet message to his fans. “Thank you for all your love and support,” Keith wrote on his official Twitter account. “I have the best fans in the world.”

Over the weekend, the Oklahoma native shared the health update, revealing he received the diagnosis last fall and that he has spent the past six months getting the treatment he needs.

“So far, so good. I need time to breathe, recover and relax,” Keith noted, prompting heartfelt messages and outpouring support from his loyal fans and social media followers across the world. They reassure him that they will be praying for his healing while he takes time off to rest.

Toby Keith Is Receiving All The Support and Love He Needs

Fellow country superstars responded with words of encouragement as well! Jason Aldean, for instance, offered some prayers through Keith’s comment sections. The same goes for singers RaeLynn, Savannah Rae, and Lance Carpenter. Love came pouring in from his friends, including NFL Hall of Famer Troy Aikman, and CMT host Cody Alan, among others.

The 60-year-old country crooner is also receiving plenty of support from his wife of nearly four decades, Tricia Lucus, along with his three children: daughters Shelley and Krystal, as well as son Stelen.

Stelen – who describes his father as a fighter – also took to social media to thank all “the kind words and prayers” they have received and is asking to keep the prayers flowing.

Currently, Keith has already canceled all of his forthcoming performances. This includes a series of performances for Naperville’s Ribfest at the Ohio State Fair. His 2022 tour dates are also no longer listed on his official website.

We’re praying for Toby Keith’s speedy recovery.
