Mark Hoppus, a singer and bassist for Blink-182, says he's officially "cancer free," months after first announcing his diagnosis.

"Just saw my oncologist and I'm cancer free!!" Hoppus wrote in an Instagram story that he also shared on Twitter. "Thank you God and universe and friends and family and everyone who sent support and kindness and love."

Hoppus, who said in July he was diagnosed with a blood cancer called diffuse large B-cell lymphoma stage 4-A, said he will have to still get scanned every six months.

"It'll take me until the end of the year to get back to normal but today is an amazing day and I feel so blessed," he said.
