Low have called off their remaining European dates as Mimi Parker continues to receive treatment for ovarian cancer. The cancellations follow the news in August that the duo would pull several dates on the continent as a precautionary measure. “We were hoping she would be healthy enough to do the UK/Europe tour we had planned for November, but it is clear that we should stay home and continue with treatment and care as she is still struggling with ovarian cancer,” the band’s Alan Sparhawk wrote on Facebook.

The statement continued:

There have been difficult days but your love has sustained us and will continue to lift us through this time. Our hearts go out immediately to others in similar situations but who don’t have as many people sending such love and healing wishes. Find someone who is alone who needs a chat and give them your time and love. With tears, we say thank you and hope to see you soon.

Parker first discussed her diagnosis on the Sheroes Radio podcast in January.

Pitchfork has contacted Low’s representatives for additional comment.
