The Wanted’s Tom Parker is being given revolutionary treatment in Spain as he continues to battle brain cancer. The Bolton singer revealed he 'cannot wait' for band’s reunion tour this week and wants to take to the stage despite fighting for his life.

Tom has spent the past week in a private hospital in the hope to become fit enough for his band's comeback shows. The 33-year-old jetted off for treatment after previously saying how shocked he was by the lack of help and funding for cancer patients in the UK.

But he hopes the revolutionary £4,000 a week treatment in Spain can swings things in his favour, The Mirror reports. The help the singer is now receiving at a private facility include time in an oxygen machine, massages and a special diet.

Tom hopes to be well enough to perform for fans on the bands tour, which starts this Thursday. A source said: “Tom has been vocal that he doesn’t think the options available in Britain are perfect so he’s trying elsewhere. “The tour means so much to him, he cannot wait. "The cancer treatment he goes through takes it out of him so it’s been good to go abroad and relax.” In October 2020, Tom revealed he had an inoperable stage 4 glioblastoma, which doctors described as “the worst case scenario”.
