In 2016, Joe Jackson was hospitalized after his health went on the decline not too long after a routine check-up. Now, Jackson is back in the hospital with terminal cancer.
According to reports, the 89-year-old father of Michael Jackson has been fighting cancer for a while, but is at the end of his rope. Sources close to the Jackson family note Katherine Jackson has been by his bedside through the whole process, and that his various children and grandchildren stopped by the hospital as well. Sources also said the cancer cannot be treated at this stage.
