“We regret to inform you that Bobby was recently diagnosed with stage 4 cancer,” she wrote. “We respectfully request your understanding and privacy during this difficult time.”
Cancer of the Bobby Sherman kind
Brigitte broke the devastating news that her husband’s kidney cancer diagnosis had “spread everywhere” in April.
Brigitte didn’t sugarcoat the sobering truth in an interview with Fox News Digital. The once-unstoppable pop icon is now terminally ill and “at home with special care,” she disclosed.
“In the past few days, he and I have been working on crossword puzzles,” she stated. Then, on Saturday, he abruptly turned around and His body isn’t functioning anymore, and he’s simply sleeping more.
It isn’t. Everything is going to shut down.

Brigitte said, “But now he can barely sign his name.” He wants “to be left in peace” and live out his remaining days with his family and their five cherished pets.
Her account of his last hospital wish was particularly heartbreaking: “His last words from the hospital last night were, ‘Brig, I just want to go home.'”
John Stamos’s assistance
According to Brigitte, the fans’ adoration has been tremendous. “Many of them have been excellent.”
The couple’s close friends have also received this support, including Full House star John Stamos, who has stood by them emotionally even though he lives far away.
Following the actor’s appointment as an ambassador for the Brigitte and Bobby Sherman Children’s Foundation, Stamos and Sherman became friends. Brigitte remarked, “And we’ve been best friends ever [since].”
Brigitte gently dissuaded Stamos from seeing Bobby in his current condition, despite his desire to visit. “I advised him not to enter the room where Bobby is at the moment,” she remarked. To cheer up his pal, the actor instead sent a poignant video greeting.
Bobby Sherman dedicated his life to serving others, not only as a paramedic and reserve officer with the Los Angeles Police Department.

Five and a half acres were made available to us. We have soup kitchens and a sizable musical village. We plan to increase the number of meals we serve daily from the current 375 to 500.
We have pavilions, a music room, and classrooms with computers. We cover the cost of their college education and field trips.

It was the realization of a dream for Brigitte, and their story together started long before the diagnosis. “I met my teenage idol crush!” she exclaimed, giggling.
She can still clearly recall the first time she saw him, standing with a buddy, in People magazine. “And when I noticed that, I thought, ‘You know what? He seems like a wonderful person.
