Michael Bibi Donates Funds From Comeback Show to the Hospital Where He Received Cancer Treatment

Michael Bibi‘s comeback story continues with the news that the English producer has donated money raised at his July comeback show to the London hospital where he underwent cancer treatment.

“To everyone that was part of this show thank you for making this possible,” Bibi wrote on Instagram with a photo of himself presenting a check to hospital staff. “Through dancing we have directly helped other people like myself and are helping to make a difference in saving more lives. My heart is full, thank you.”

The donation — about $162,815 — was raised at Bibi’s inaugural One Life show at London’s Finsbury Park on July 2, with the performance marking his first big U.K. set back after being diagnosed with a rare form of cancer. His shows were canceled as the London-based artist went into treatment at the city’s Royal Marsden Hospital. Last December, he announced that he was officially cancer free.

Representatives from the Royal Marsden hospital were on hand at the Finsbury Park show with information booths that raised awareness for cancer treatment and prevention.

Bibi’s One Life concept, which includes another five shows across Europe through late September, establishes a new normal for the previously globe-trotting DJ, with Bibi now playing a very select number of shows, most of them during the day and early evening.

“I’m focusing on being healthy. Also being in a hospital bed for that amount of time, I had to have a couple of surgeries, which left me a bit immobile for a while,” Bibi told Billboard ahead of the Finsbury Park show. “I’m OK now, but there was a lot of rehabilitation from lying flat on my back for such a long period of time. So I’m in the gym now, just slowly rehabilitating myself, trying to get back to how I was, the old me. Eating well, three meals a day. Spending as much time as possible with my loved ones and my friends. Sleeping well is important to me. I’m not doing any shows that are late at night anymore. I’m just chilling for now. The doctor’s orders are literally, ‘Just chill,’ and that’s what I’m doing.”
